First competitive game, and first Mags goal!..

Our first ever match as a team came against Taipei United.  

Magpies vs Taipei United

We arranged this friendly match to see how our kick about people would perform in an actual game.  We played quite well, admittedly against not the strongest opposition.  

We rocked up, and played well considering it was our first ever actual game as a so called team, more like a rabble in the process of forming a team from a kick about group.

We played in white for our friendlies, and looked like a rag tag outfit.  Back to the game, we did well.  We won a corner, Luke pinged the corned into the box, and their was a massive scramble in the box.  Big Ryan got his toe punt on it, and it flew in the back of the net, cue mass celebration.  

After we had played for 90 minutes Taipei United couldn't believe they were losing to such a rabble that doesn't even have a kit, and decided they wanted to play until either it got too dark or they scored more goals than us.

In the end the game ended 1-0 (in normal time) and then 1-1 when it got too dark to play any more with Taipei United claiming it was still possible to play!!!
