On Tuesday 14th March, SS Peter and Paul hosted St Michael’s C of E Primary school for a football match. The game started off very tight and it was obvious this was going to be a very close game. There were a few chances for St Michael’s and Alyssia Williams went close for SS Peter and Paul, shooting just over when through on goal. Then out of nowhere, the ball fell to Bartosz Kolasa on the edge of the penalty area and he whipped a right footed shot into the corner of the goal. The game stayed 1-0 until half time and then SS Peter and Paul swapped goal keepers, with Ariyan Pallan volunteering to go in goal for the second half.
The second half started with St Michael’s doing lots of attacking and it was down to some last ditch defending and Ariyan clearing up in goal that kept it to 1-0. Then with 10 minutes to go, SS Peter and Paul had a corner. The ball bounced around the penalty area and fell at the feet of Giuseppe Agro, who calmly put the ball in the net for 2-0.
Then for the last 10 minutes, it was all St Michael’s as they desperately tried to score and they got the goal they fully deserved, scoring high into the net, Ariyan Pallan having no chance in goal.
The game finished 2-1 to SS Peter and Paul. Both teams deserve praise though for an entertaining game of football.
