Holytown Colts v 00s

John & Peter's team began at Keir Hardie Sports Centre kicking into a stiff breeze but were immediately on the offensive. Reece Connolly won possession and passed to Mark Walker whose strong shot was touched over the bar by the keeper. Holytown were always a threat with the wind behind and opened the scoring following a long through ball, Joe Vaughan had no chance with the finish. The boys were immediately on the attack again however and the equaliser soon arrived. Again Reece Connolly started the move and Mark Walker and Nathan Murray combined to release Jake Glancy who took his goal very well with a strong shot into the corner. Holytown then took the lead again, Wishaw switched off at a throw in and allowed the opposition forward to shoot home.

00s v Calderbraes

John & Peter's team began the game against Calderbraes and looked out of sorts. The boys game away to Mossend was called off the previous week and they looked as if they had missed the match practice. They were on the back foot and fell behind when a cross from Calderbraes flew straight in with Joe Vaughan helpless. The boys were then under pressure from a series of corners but defended well and the half ended with team still on the defensive.

2000's Match Report v Moorlands

John & Peter's team kicked off positively on a bitterly cold morning looking to take the game to their opponents and carry on their excellent play from the previous week. The boys were rewarded for their positive start and took the lead from a corner. Nathan Murray crossed the ball and Jake Glancy scored with a clever flick from his heel to put the team one up. Wishaw kept up the pressure and were unlucky not to double their advantage shortly after. Jake Kane applied some good pressure to win possession back high up the pitch and from the resultant cross Nathan Murray was unlucky to see his curling effort hit the bar with the keeper well beaten. Moorlands were still a threat however and Joe Vaughan was on his toes to make a fine save following a break through the middle from the Moorlands striker. Wishaw kept up the pressure and were unlucky again when following a Mark Walker cross Nathan Murray saw another fine effort denied by the crossbar. Less than a minute later the team got their 2nd goal, a great first time pass from Chris Reid found Jake Glancy unmarked in the area and he got his 2nd goal of the game. Wishaw finished the half as they started and added a 3rd, this time Nathan Murray was the provider for Jake Glancy to get a first half hat trick.
