Match Reports

11 Boys v Wangaratta won 3 – 2
Our backs were against the wall from the start. We were down 5 starting u/11s against the only team to beat us this year.
On the way to the ground we received the call that one more had fallen, Isaiahs thumbs were swollen from too much gaming, thus triggering a bout of acute asthma making him bed ridden.
Then Billy turned up, with his dad running him through some last minute fitness tests on his bung ankle.
He failed said tests. The game of chasey at his friends sleepover may just ended any hope of the winning the league.
But alas, the depth of junior talent at Spurs knows no bounds.
Enter Harry and Aiden from the u/9s Miniroos, Elisha from the u/11 girls and young Will “Gareth Bale” Hale from the u/10s.
We found the back of the net first, Aydan Castles crushing one from close range set the tone for the morning.
Wang equalised late in the first half by utilising the extraordinary amount of duck poo in the box to slip one out the back of our defences.
Our leaders stood up in the second half. Lenny and Cooper were outstanding with their ball control in the middle, Dustin was his usual reliable self in defence, and John has really taken off with some perfectly timed volleys off his shins and knees.
Coops eventually found the net twice more to seal our greatest win this century.(no exaggeration)
But the star of the show today was the smallest on the field. Will Hale, ducked and weaved and nuttied his way through the middle like the ball was on a string. He got the award for his efforts. So did Elisha, who’s run through the forwards all game really showcased her immense talents.
To say a win was important is an understatement.
To win against Wangaratta under such circumstances is an astounding effort.
The coach shed tears of joy.
Goals: Coops 2, Aydan 1
Awards: Elisha and Will
NB: With a big few weeks ahead deciding the league title, we must all get to training and sharpen our skills.

12 Boys v Wangaratta lost 1 – 2
Again, a great effort from Spurs.
Very unlucky not to capitalise on some nice forward play but we probably were undermanned slightly in the midfield again falling foul to our U/11s playing a full game prior.
After watching the efforts of Mbappe, Pogba and Co. overnight, Cooper scored a “worldie” of his own from outside the box but it just wasn’t enough to get across the line.
Wangs goals were very lucky and totally reliant on the fact that young Ethan Haberfield can’t quite reach the cross bar. Cheeky by Wang.
Gallant games from Dustin, Al, Tyreece, Lenny, Daisy and Ruby.
Goal: Cooper

Thirds Men v Wangaratta won 3 – 2
The Thirds had another win on Sunday and this has cemented our third place on the ladder. It wasn’t exactly a convincing win, at 3-2, but we did enough to get the points. We were a little lucky as each team managed an own goal but Harry and Jacob also scored. Will made a magnificent save, Ol did a somersault, Manny made a great pass to set up the goals and Mitch was unrelenting in the midfield. Great defensive work limited the opposition’s chances to attack. Well done, Spurs. And thanks to Helen for running the lines.

Reserve Ladies v Wangaratta won 3 – 1
A fantastic effort from the whole team led to a well-earned victory over Wangaratta. The girls went into the game with only 10 players and all worked hard together to keep Wangaratta at bay. It was in the first half that Yas had an opportunity to shoot at goal with enough force that the keeper only saved by deflecting it. Jess Briggs was ready for the rebound, however, and nut megged the keeper to score the first goal of the match. Wangaratta came back hard, but the stellar defense by Caitie, Millie and Kelly meant they had few opportunities to test our keeper. On the odd occasion when Snowy was challenged in goals, she cleaned up the ball every time, not giving Wangaratta the chance to score. The score was 1-0 at half time.
The second half the girls went in just as determined as the first, however an unfortunate goal by Wangaratta leveled the score. The fantastic ballwork by Anna, Bella, Jess B, Yas and Laura meant more opportunities at goal. Laura did an amazing job on the wing, supporting the defense and then providing some amazing crosses into goal. Yas was also crossing the ball in well, the second goal for Hotspurs coming from a cross from Yas. A defender was forced to try and block the ball, as Laura was right behind her ready to tap it in. Yas, however, did another powerful kick which meant the defender’s attempt was not enough, so the ball still bounced past the keeper for an own goal.
As Wangaratta tried to come back the defense from both the back line and midfield seemed to kick up a notch, the girls determined to keep the lead this time. Caitie, Millie and Kelly all prevented any serious threats on goal and were able to move the ball to the wings or midfield. Anna, Jess and Bella then used their skills with the ball to move the play out to the wings where Yas and Laura continuously made brilliant runs down the line and crossed it back in for shots on goal. It was on yet another amazing cross in that Bella was able to tap the ball into the back of the net, sealing our win. A fantastic effort all round, but we will be happy to have more players in future rounds.
Thank you to Kevin for running the line for us and thank you to our supporters.
