A 10-strong Highworth J team put up a strong, spirited performance against Wanborough this week in an exciting end-to-end match. Despite some impressive individual skill from Wanborough and having a full squad against Highworth's 10 men, it was Highworth's team-work and passing game that helped them to open the scoring 7 minutes into the match. Wanborough failed to take advantage of their extra outfield player and it was Highworth that looked like they were the more likely to score throughout the first-half.
Goals from Luke G. and Max in the second-half put Wanborough ahead. It was Highworth though that played as though they had an extra man on the field, thwarting Wanborough's attacks and often seeming to find space for their own. Luke's second goal sealed the match in Wanborough's favour. However Highworth kept fighting all the way to the end; putting away a consolation goal just before the final whistle.
