In what was a fiercely competed contest, the Hawks battled hard, and played by far some of the best football of their season so far. However, at 2-2, it was onto the dreaded penalties!
Hawks Keeper, Alex, pulled off a great save for Ruislip's 3rd, giving the Hawks the advantage. The next two penalties were scored, leaving Ethan Bowring to step up for what would be the winning penalty. Pressure.........what pressure? GOAL!!!!!!!!!
