A big day for Uni with 17 goals....Not to often in this comp you see a 19 Goal day !
It could have been a lot bigger with Uni just not clinical enough in all grades, (3rds could have been 10, Reserves could have been at least 6 and firsts could have been 10 as well).
The Barnsley keepers really had a great day, and I mean that ! They pulled off some quality saves that kept university at bay for periods of time...but it seemed like the the big pitch hurt Barnsley...and they really suffered.
They had an older keeper in firsts...and he made some real quality saves in the first half...The Thirds keeper backed up in reserves..he is a big lad...but also made some really telling touches to keep the score down... Keepers were the stand outs on the pitch for Barnsley !
Barnsley also went down to 10 men in the second half of firsts, when their defender pulled the shirt of a Uni attacker as he broke through to go to goal... a bit soft.... but it was an attacking opportunity, and the last line of defense.
Big game mid week for Uni against Beresfield. Tuesday is Firsts, Wednesday is thirds and Reserves.
