Match report	This was a very competitive game in which both teams really went for it and where a draw was probably a fair result. Fulford scored an early goal when Sam found Paul on the right, and from a tight angle he shot across goal to find the bottom left hand corner. Brooklyn went on the attack in search of an equaliser and Fulford needed some good tackles from Jack to keep them at bay. Unfortunately an equaliser did come when a long range shot flew through a crowd of players into the far corner. Brooklyn nearly took the lead before half time, but were denied by a last ditch sliding challenge that prevented a certain goal. In the second half both teams pushed forward in search of a winner. Sedar, Sam and Jonathan combined to find Joe at the back post, but his shot went narrowly wide. Brooklyn nearly scored when a powerful long shot was well saved by Liam. Fulford had another good chance when Paul broke through on the right, but a covering defender made a great block challenge to stop a certain goal. In the last minute, a counter attack by Brooklyn saw their striker run through on goal, but Liam stood his ground to make a great save. Clemmie had a great game on his debut, but the Man of the Match award went to Liam for his important saves.
