The Under 12 Celts had a much more dramatic finale to their encounter against local rivals Cirencester Town. Having gone behind to two early goals from corners the boys edged their way back into the game and pulled a goal back after their inspirational Captain Wil Lloyd danced his way past two defenders to cross to Ollie Potter to slam in from close range.
The Celts had the better of the second half with Cirencester keeping the advantage with some last ditch defending and excellent goalkeeping. Fairford and Lechlade striker Ethan Nicolaas who was giving the Ciren defenders a torrid time was hauled down in the box but the referee gave a free kick just outside. The resultant free-kick from Dan Howard was heading for the top corner but was clawed behind for a corner kick. Justice was served as from the corner the ball was headed in by Joe Warrington.
