Thrapston Under 11’s made it 2 out of 2 winning the second game of the season with a well deserved victory over Raunds Tigers with Reece Evans scoring both goals in the 2-0 win.

A goal less first half saw Jack Rawcliffe and Reece Evans beaten by the Raunds Keeper on a number of occasions and Paul Spicker Thrapston's Keeper, was put to work by the Raunds wingers who’s best chance hit the post. A lack of confidence from the Defence and Mid filed during the first half gave Raunds the chance to keep the pressure on with Thrapston all to often simply clearing the ball into the other half.

The second half saw a revitalised Thrapston building opportunities at every chance with Matthew \Watts putting in a fantastic performance working non stop. Kyle Fox and Carlos Lewis dominated the mid field pushing forward creating chances for Callum Mcdermott, Jack Rawcliffe and Reece Evans who were able to split the Raunds defence on a number of chances only to be beaten again by the Keeper. The first goal came as Reece saw himself one on one with the Keeper but squeezing the ball between the keeper and the post made it 1-0. His second came shortly afterwards taking on three defenders on the edge of the box, with e magnificent turn he was past them and the ball was in the back of the net. Final score 2 - 0.
