Sundays just don’t feel the same without footy…
Our last match report of the season... A very delayed one, as Admin have only just finished their league title celebrations. Paul Gascoigne would be proud.
⚽️ Dronfield Oak 2-4 Tupton FC ⚽️
Our league championship victory was confirmed before kick off, due to All Inn fore fitting their game against Dronfield Oak. With that being said it was time to draw names out of a hat 🎩
Jake Brock in net, A backline consisting of Jay Cutts, Ben Meadley, James Stewart and Josh Burrow.
Midfield 3 - Matt Bower, Luke Rawson and Liam Hendley. Bower stayed upfront majority of the half. ‘Any chance of some help back here Bower’
Front 3 - Micky Mcaneny, Jack Stevens and Tyler Radcliffe. Modern day version of Messi, Suarez and Neymar.
Bench - Rob Holland, Cal Barker and Dan Howitt.
The match kicked off and Dronfield quickly took the lead, however we responded with two thunderbolts courtesy of Liam Hendley and Jay Cutts. Bower subbed himself off just before half time ‘ My legs don’t work’
Half time 1-2
Subs were made. Dutchy and Dan ended up front and it’s safe to say they’re better at the back. Bower was back on the pitch and in goal, Brock back in his favoured wing position.
Dronfield equalised quickly thanks to Ben Meadley scoring in his own net. Apparently Brock tried claiming the assist. It wasn’t long before we had the advantage again. Brock down the right wing, you know the drill by now… 2-3
Luke Rawson was having a barnstorming last game for Tupton and he nearly got on the score sheet with a 35 yard free kick that rattled the underside of the cross bar. Rawson didnt have long to wait for another bite of the cherry… Penalty awarded to Tupton, Up steps Rawson, Top corner, Bosh! 2-4.
Full time 2-4
MOM - Luke Rawson, pictured below in his favourite football shirt. 🦉 Mega shift from Rawson playing centre mid for the first time.
Dick of the day - Ben Meadley - Own goal says enough.
Thanks to Dronfield for two great games this season and the post match hospitality 🍺
We’ll be positing our post season review in the coming weeks.
