LISC U14 Boys European Tour

The good news first: as we arrived on the playing fields this morning we came alongside an incredible photo opportunity as Newcastle manager Graeme Souness was taking publicity photos for the start of the tournament. We introduced ourselves and got a picture with the ex-Liverpool player and head coach of the major professional team of the area. Next, we began the game with North Shields and in the very first minute Miguel scored. After that, the news is less positive. North Shields equalized on a ball that LISC was unable to clear from the box. LISC played pretty strongly in the first half, combining on passes, getting crosses and chances. The second half began tied 1 to 1, but LISC got a second goal for the lead. After that North Shields began winning more balls and LISC began to tire (too much Edinburgh walking tour, perhaps). North Shields scored their second goal on a perfectly timed run and a 2 on 1 situation at the top of the box. With about 10 minutes left, North Shields scored another messy goal from a free ball in the box.
