Offerton Vs NMJFC u12's
New Mills turned up at Offerton today knowing that they were going to be tested during the game.
The Millers started the game very strongly pushing Offerton back into their own half and creating several chances, but it was looking like one of those games when the ball just wasn’t going to go in.
Tackles where flying in and the Millers won a penalty which was unfortunately saved by the Offerton keeper.
Straight after this Offerton knocked a long ball and the home sides striker was adjudged to be fouled in the box ....penalty.
Luckily for the Millers, the resulting penalty was missed.
New Mills then upped their game with both wingers Josh and Toby making great runs and putting in some superb crosses. This led to the ball finding George just outside the box who picked the ball up and smashed it into the top corner leaving the keeper no chance and putting the millers 1-0.
The Millers then switched off, and then what looked to be offside, Offerton equalised against the run of play 1-1.
The Millers went looking to take the lead again with Lewis and Ben bossing the midfield, Lewis knocked a wonderful ball into the box with Olly B beating his marker to the ball with a bullet header 2-1 and an entertaining celebration- half time.
The second half started with Offerton starting to press, but Ross and George were both solid at the back.
The Millers then took control of the game, Lewis scoring two cracking goals one top bins and Ollie M who scored a penalty.
Late on in the game Dillan saved a penalty.
In the end the Millers came away with a 5-1 victory but battered and bruised.
The J TAYLOR ELECTRICAL SOLUTIONS MOTM was awarded to Olly.B.
