Backwell Ath Vets vs Red Star 35s

Match Reports

Backwell Ath Vets Report:

A really good game played in the Corninthian spirit. Both teams played some good football and tried to keep the ball moving in muddy conditions.
Backwell probably edged the possession and attacking stats and this finally told as we went 1-0 up in the first half.
Another Backwell goal soon after half time gave us some breathing space but Red Star kept going and made the game really competitive. Finally they won a penalty in the last ten minutes which was  dispatched with aplomb and set up a grand stand finish which the huge crowd of a couple of kids and a bloke and his dog thoroughly enjoyed.

Red Star 35s Report:

The last game before the 2nd lockdown, which was played in a VERY CORINTHIAN yet competitive spirit by both sides. Backwell played some great football and took a 2-0 lead with Red Star also playing well and fighting back as the game went on. The game was also brilliantly reffed which only added to the enjoyment of this high quality, competitive and very corinthian game of football as we all brace ourselves for another lockdown and no team sports for a while.
