On Saturday 10 May we matched up with The King’s School (King’s) and had a mixed bag of results as per Match Results below. Unfortunately, Fred K from our First XI suffered a broken leg in a slide tackle with an opposing King’s player in the opening minutes of the game, and we wish him all the best in his recovery. We look forward to Fred K still being involved with football in some capacity after he’s had a bit of time off.
First XI vs King’s 2-4 loss
On Saturday 10 May, the Shore First XI versed a strong King’s team in their second game of the GPS Plate. Shore was determined to come out early and did so with great link up play, but was unable to finish off well-created chances. The game was back and forth, with great efforts of defending, keeping the game scoreless. However, King’s gave themselves a deserved 1-0 lead, and unfortunately, Shore were left with 10 men after a red card late in the half. The second half brought similar intensity as Shore were determined to get back into the game. However, King’s were able to continue their attacking threat and were rewarded with 3 more goals to make it 4-0, and Shore unfortunately went down to nine men after seeing another red card. However, Shore was determined to fight back, and after great link up play between Hamish Walls and Alex Wilde, Shore made it 4-1 after a great finish by Alex Wilde. Shore continued to play good football, and a curling free kick on the edge of box from Will Procter saw the game 4-2. However, King’s was able to hold off Shore and the final score ended 4-2. Congratulations to King’s for their well-deserved victory.
