Fairfield Y9s secure victory over Blaise in a great game!

Fairfield High school secured a 3-2 victory over Blaise School in a great game. Blaise opened the scoring making it 1-0, but then Fairfield came back with Reuben delivering a calm and composed finish to equalise. 

Shortly after Reuben’s goal, captain Otis made it 2-1 with a great finish into the bottom corner when he was one on one with the goal keeper. Blaise was pushing for an equaliser before half time, but Fairfield’s defence was strong and did not let them through.

In the second half, Fairfield started strong with Max skimming the cross bar with a long free kick and then hitting the crossbar again from the edge of the box. 

Blaise then equalised making it 2-2, but the Fairfield players kept going looking to regain their lead. Then Otis had a fantastic bicycle kick effort from the edge of the box hitting the crossbar, but luckily Fingal was there to convert the rebound making it 3-2. Fairfield managed to hold out and secure a 3-2 home win. 

The match was also Jack W and Louis’s Fairfield debuts.

Players: Otis, Arthur, Ben, Denzel, Felix, Fingal, Gabriel, Jack H. Jack W, Hugo, David, Reuben, Rubin, Max and Louis.
