Report: CoP Men’s 5th XI vs Cambridge University 3s – February 15, 2025

With a defensive line up we expected a tough game.
It was. They came at us and we rebuffed their attacks for 20 minutes but eventually uni scored thier first through open play.
Valiant effors from our team and a goal line save from Frank and we ended the first half 2-0 down.
The team came out after half time still hoping to put up a strong fight.
Uni came at us fast and hard, players moving at pace and making numerous attacks, our team fought well, winning tackles and
attacking the uni end of the pitch Michel Boyle had a great chance with a 2v1 with the Uni Keeper and a defender. 
In the second half Uni had numerous short corners and good keeping from Sam, defending from Natham, Harry and Shane and another
goal line save from Frank we kept the score down to 4-0 at full time. A great performace all round but just not good enough to 
beat a you Uni team. The game ended 4-0 to Uni.
We also managed to avoid any cards this week, Frank got MOM.
