Playing all the football but 2 - 0 down inside 20 minutes and not getting the rub of the green, things were looking grim but the mighty Yellows stuck to their guns. With no compromise we kept on playing our brand of total football and were rewarded just before half time when Max scored to put us right back in it and make the half time team talk a little easier. Half Time 2 - 1.
Aztecs heads were down a little at half time even though they had the lead. Five minutes into the 2nd half and we were back on level terms following Dean's great finish.
Game on!! With us pushing forward looking for the winner there were chances at both ends. With neither team being able to finish the game off, the match went to extra time.
Extra Time. Following some great pressure around the Aztec box we forced a corner. Dean crossed and Joe was felled inside the box.Penalty! The ref points to the spot and Joe picks himself up from the floor to sink the coolest of penalties you'll ever see. 2 - 3, the crowd go wild!
Final score F.C Aztecs 2 - TTJFC 3.
An absolutely fantastic experience for everyone involved. A big thanks to our friends at Aztecs for their great sportsmanship.
