Raphaels Park 2-2 Ryan U12 Blue - Echo U12 Div D

Ryan completely dominated this fixture from start to finish. Ryan wasted chance after chance and should have been home and dry by half time.Rapheals took the lead mid way through the 1st half, but Ryan responded well earning a penalty from the restart.Unfortunally the penalty was saved. Ryan pressed forward and M.Taylor burst through to score. With minutes remaining in the half C.Sorrell picked the ball up in the midfield and ran on to score from 18 yards to give Ryan the lead.

The 2nd half was like the 1st, Ryan were in complete control, M.Dimitrijevic went close,C.George nearly extended Ryan’s lead and M.Taylor hit the post twice, chance after chance went a begging. Eventually Ryan stopped playing and after a terrible defensive error which has cost Ryan all season reared its ugly head. Ryan failed to clear and Rapheals grabbed a late equaliser in the last minute.

Ryan played some superb football today and should have won comfortably, let this be a lesson you must take your chances.
