Year 9 Lancashire Cup win on penalties after 4-4 draw

Friday night saw a barnstormer of a game as our Year 9 boys were victorious in the Lancashire Cup against Darwen Aldridge Academy.

Darwen went into a 4-1 lead at the start of the second half but the team showed great resilience and determination to come back to 4-4. Goalscorers Alfie Crabtree, Oscar Mulligan, Stanley Mathews and Kai Kucukcan (pictured below) took the game into extra time.

The game finished with an exciting penalty shoot out (main picture) winning 5-4 after Jacob Morgan saved a Darwen penalty. The team play Pendle Vale on Tuesday in the league and wait for the next team in the Lancashire Cup draw.
