Saturday 18th April 2019...
The young Fresh Choice Richmond 1st team played Tahuna 1st on Saturday on a lush grass pitch in Tahuna. The clash had everything to be a classic game of football and it didn't disappoint the good size crowd. Tahuna scored early from a very tight angle, however after that Richmond dominated most parts of the game and just before half time Joseph Rozga found the back of the net from the edge of the box with a dipping and swerving ball that the Tahuna keeper could do nothing about but helplessly watch. After that both sides had chances but couldn’t convert, with Richmond coming the closer of the two without success, eventually settling for the 1 – 1 draw. Coach Clay Wilhelmus, although thinking they could have stolen the win, was really happy the way his young side battled and competed against a much older and experienced Tahuna team.
