Yes, those of us brave or stupid enough to give up our Thursday evenings for the good of Madison Celtic were rewarded with a backs to the wall, come from behind 2-2 draw against one of the many Guilford teams run by Tom....the other Tom. I for one was feeling the pain after only ten minutes of this game and i was completely done in by the end of it! The Christmas and New Year festivities were finally being paid for by my unwilling body and it was not a pretty sight! Through most of this first half we were chasing shadows and my lungs felt like they were breathing in acid! Great running by Carlos and Fribeka kept us in the match and we ended the half only one down. The second half was a bit more even as we finally found our second wind but that didn't stop us going 2 nil down. But we are a tough team and we clawed a quick goal back through Enrique and then a great equalizer from Carlos. We could even have won it if i had managed to control my shot near the end of the game. Final score 2-2.....not bad considering how many of us were struggling to breathe at the beginning!Guilford Celtic is a Connecticut based team playing in the Shoreline Adult Soccer League since 2010. The team was formed in 2003 and played in the Connecticut Adult Recreational Soccer League for 7 years. In 2017 we changed our name from Madison to Guilford Celtic! The team is inspired by Glasgow Celtic FC...probably the greatest football team on the planet!
