Score	1-3
Match report	This was a cracking game of football, which similar to the second half of the first match, probably had the competiveness of a late-season U8s game. There was some ferocious tackling from both teams, with Paul, Joe, Harle and Airan all getting stuck in when they needed to. Davis was yet again a rock in defence with some brilliantly timed tackles and interceptions. Rufforth opened the scoring, but Fulford equalised when a free-kick from Freddie was deflected high into the net. Fulford had a great chance to make it 2-1 when a 25 yard through ball from Paul picked out Luca, but the Rufforth keeper made a good save at his near post. Rufforth made it 2-1 when a right-wing crossed was unfortunately deflected in by Paul. Fulford pushed forward in search of an equaliser, but it was Rufforth who had the final say as they added another goal to wrap up a 3-1 win. Many thanks to all from Rufforth for their role in a good morning's football. While its been a while since Fulford have conceded so many goals, its good to play such strong teams as there's more to be learnt in such matches sometimes, than from a comfortable win.
