PPFC U9s 7 – Highgate RangersU9s 0

The performance of the team as a whole was very impressive and built on our improving form. The last match had been bruising and hard against Canada Blanch, a physically strong and large team. As Neil pointed out it would be great to play them again now of the back of this performance.
