Last Sunday, XJS boys football team lined out for another friendly football game against our neighbouring secondary school, Teuk Thla. The XJS team were busy on Saturday lining the field in preparation for the match.The weather was hot, even at the kick off time of 8am, so both teams had their endurance tested.

The teams were well matched and the pace of the game was fast as both teams had skilful players able to carry the ball and pass well. The first goal for XJS came as the ball accidentally fell through the hands of their goal keeper after a shot on goal, so XJS were determined to score again in a more deserving fashion! Fortunately this came soon after!

After the half time break, Teuk Thla rallied well and took our lead down to 2-1. As the clock ticked, the victory looked to be ours……..however, with less than five minutes remaining Teuk Thla chalked up an equalising goal, to bring the game to a close at 2-2!

We wish Teuk Thla good luck in their upcoming provincial competition and as always, a big thanks to the staff for their help to organise the game
