Rammy Rhinos Fall To Old Riningtonians In 7-A-Side Clash

In a spirited encounter at Summerseat on 29 March 2025, Rammy Rhinos faced off against Old Riningtonians in a 7-a-side match that ended with a scoreline of 1-3. The match kicked off at 9:00 am, and despite a valiant effort from the Rhinos, they were unable to secure a victory against their opponents.

The Rhinos adopted a 1-4-1 formation, with a lone goalkeeper stationed at the back, supported by four defenders across the width of the pitch. The midfield was anchored by a single player, tasked with linking defence and attack, while the remaining players were positioned to exploit the flanks and create goal-scoring opportunities. This setup required the defenders to maintain a solid line, while the midfield player was expected to control the tempo and provide support to both the defence and the attack.

As the match unfolded, the Rhinos were unable to make the most of their formation, and the Old Riningtonians capitalised on their opportunities. The first half saw both teams testing each other, but it was the Old Riningtonians who found their rhythm and began to dominate possession.

The first half concluded at the 25-minute mark, with the score still level as both teams regrouped for the second half. However, the Old Riningtonians came out firing after the break, quickly asserting their dominance on the match.

The Rhinos struggled to contain the attacking prowess of their opponents, who found the back of the net three times in the second half. Despite the Rhinos' best efforts, they could only manage a single goal in response, leaving them with a disappointing defeat.

Jack Cahill was recognised for his efforts on the pitch, earning the title of Player of the Match for his contributions, even as the Rhinos faced a challenging day against a well-organised Old Riningtonians side. The match served as a reminder of the competitive nature of 7-a-side football, where every moment counts and the ability to convert chances can make all the difference.
