Yesterday was the first day of the qualifiers for the competitive year 6 students who entered the Euro 2016 FIFA tournament. Luis (in Miss Hughes class) got beat in the first game by Callum- in Mr Bolton’s class. In the first 45 minutes Luis was ahead by 1-0. Callum brought it back in the second half to 1-1. Then in the 62nd minute Callum gained a pen off a bad tackle from Luis in the penalty box - a pen to Callum. Goaaaaallllllll!!! Callum was in the lead with a score of 2-1. The final whistle was blown and Callum progressed to the group round. Good sportsmanship Luis, better luck next time!

 The second qualifier match was Anthony v Jay. In the first ten minutes Jay was given two yellow cards which turned into a red so Jay was down to ten men. In the next ten minutes Jay was shown a straight red card that was pulled out of the referee’s pocket!  Jay was down two players now. In the last 45 minutes the score stayed o-o until the final whistle. The game went straight to pens.  Jay was up first and scored! Anthony stepped up second and also held his nerve. Both players continued to score their penalties until Jay missed his last attempt. Anthony then stepped up to the ball, swung his right leg and the ball entered the top bin. Anthony won 4-3. Sorry Jay, maybe next time!

In the third game of today’s qualifiers, Joe C played against Kyle. The crowd was behind Joe from the start. Shots from Joe flew right into the goalies arms at various points of this nail-biting match. At half time, Kyle lead 1-0. in the 47th minute Joe equalised to make the score 1-1. 4 minutes later Joe scored again to lead 2-1. Joe extended his lead before Kyle brought it back to 3-2. A pen was won by  Joe in the 88th minute. All he needed to do was bury it in the net.......ggggooooaaaallll.  The final whistle was blown. Well done Joe, a very impressive 4-2 win!
