Our Year 10 Elite Football Academy have reached the semi-finals of The English Schools Football Association National Playstation Cup! On Wednesday of this week, they played Wolfreton School and Sixth Form College from East Riding in the quarter finals of the competition. In cold but bright and dry conditions, Kepier opened the scoring after 3 minutes with a well worked goal from Lewis. With Kepier having the bulk of the possession, Wolfreton were having to work hard to defend repeated attacks, but in the 16th minute Nathan added Kepier’s second. Wolfreton continued to work hard, but Max broke through to add a third in the 37th minute, and Kyle added a fourth almost on the stroke of half time, Kepier going into the break with a 4 0 lead. Within 3 minutes of the second half kicking off, Wolfreton’s hard work and persistence paid off, and they brought the score back to 4 1. However the Kepier midfield started to move the ball around well, stretching the Wolfreton team, and as gaps started to appear in their midfield and defence Kyle (52nd minute), an own goal (54th minute), Harry (71st minute) and Harry (75th minute) made the final score 8 1 to Kepier. The Year 10s will now face Thomas Telford School from Shropshire away from home in the semi final. Well done to both Kepier and Wolfreton School for putting on a great game!!!
