Leigh and Bransford Badgers 1, Scorpions 1

The Scorpions recorded a well earned draw against a strong Leigh and Bransford side. With only 7 players in the squad for this fixture, it was always going to be a difficult match against a very strong team. However the 7 gave their all, and despite falling a goal behind mid way through the 1st half, a couple literally playing through the pain barrier and everyone pulling on their reserves to find that extra piece of energy to last through, the Scorpions scored a well deserved equaliser through a twice taken penalty from Dylan Barnes. That goal really lifted the team with Michael Hall screwing a shot just wide of the post, and Dylan Barnes having a further ferocious goal bound shot blocked by a defender. In defence the Scorpions were very solid with everyone covering for each other, all working tirelessly to preserve the well earned point.
