⚽️ Match Update vs Queensmen

A tough and competitive game this morning for the Blues against Queensmen.

Queensmen managed to take the lead from a corner in the first half, making it 1–0, but the boys responded brilliantly. The second half saw a big increase in intensity with some excellent passages of passing and quick counter-attacking football. The pressure was on right until the final whistle in a frantic last few minutes.

The boys truly played their socks off today, showing great determination, teamwork, and quality throughout the match.

Newnham Athletics 0–4 Phoenix

The final game of 2025 ends in a tough result in a home fixture. A bright start saw us unlucky not to take the lead before Phoenix scored just inside the post. Three excellent long-range finishes followed, including a superb free kick.

The scoreline doesn’t reflect the passion, effort, and commitment shown by all the boys, who worked hard right to the final whistle.

Player of the Match: Goalkeeper Arthur, with a series of excellent saves 👏🧤

We’ll take the lessons, reset, and go again. 💪🔴⚽️
