Dyke House 3–3 Lawrence Jackson (Lawrence Jackson progress on penalties)

A superb match unfolded at Lawrence Jackson on Wednesday night, with the Year 7 team putting on a fantastic performance and narrowly missing out on the next round via a penalty shootout.

After a nervous ...start, Dyke House went 1–0 down but struck back superbly with a great finish from Oliver R with his left foot.

Straight from the kick-off, Dyke House went 2–1 up when Joey H pounced on a defensive mix-up and calmly slotted home. However, Dyke House then lost concentration and lost the lead within a minute, bringing the game back to 2–2. Dyke House dominated the rest of the match, and Yousef J finished from close range to give Dyke House a deserved 3–2 lead. However, late in the game, Lawrence Jackson caught us on the counter-attack and levelled the score at 3–3, with the match decided on a penalty shootout.

⭐ MOTM: Jenson C led by example and was absolutely superb at the back.
