Oakwood 7-0 Bassett Green B
Oakwood 1-0 Abbotswood
Oakwood 2-1 Foxhills
Oakwood 6-0 Townhill

Oakwood were just as dominant during the semi-final against Springhill, winning 4-0. Meaning Oakwood progressed to the final in high spirits.

The final was to be played against Bartley, who had also progressed to the final with a 4-0 win in the other semi-final. The Oakwood defence ensured they kept the Bartley attackers at bay with a disciplined display and the midfield battled for every tackle. After 10 minutes the game was still 0-0 and extra time was needed. Then, following a fantastic run by defender, Angel, and a smart one-two on the edge of the box, Angel slotted the ball into the bottom corner - Oakwood taking a 1-0 lead. Oakwood held their nerve for the final minute and were victorious!

City Champions!

Well done to all the players. It was impossible to pick a player of the day so well done to the whole team! Goal scorers: Mia (7), Praise (7), Caitlin (7), Summer (7) and Angel (2).
