1st XI Football v New Plymouth BHS Match Report

Boys' High played New Pymouth Boys' High yesterday, losing 2 - 1. Boys' High got off to a solid start, dominating the game from the get-go, however several chances on goal went begging. Against the run of play, New Plymouth pounced on a defensive error to open the scoring, just before half time.

In the 2nd half, Boys' High again had more of the game and were able to pepper the New Plymouth goal, with no reward. New Plymouth stuck to their game plan of playing long balls and found the back of the net to make it 2 nil. 

Jaeden Shaw immediately struck back with a well taken shot to take the score to 2 1, however, despite good work from strikers (Josh Davenport, Kay Kay Adeyinka and Jacob Cranston) Boys' High could not find an equaliser.
