All the inter-dimensional wights and wolves were packed into the haunted arena in the Barrow-Downs for their friendly against Gondolin. It was the third round of friendlies and TIG supporters were hoping to see their team roster begin to solidify, and perhaps the team would be looking to find its tournament form.

And indeed they were, and the same went for their opponent- Gondolin. Both squads came out giving good effort and trying for the win. But they both failed at that, as they each scored a goal in both halves for a 2-2 draw.

NilpWolf did an excellent job containing Maeglin, but the Wights were not able to counter both the keen-boot and the Lord of Balrogs at the same time. Gothmog scored twice on the day, both on feeds from Elemmakil.

At the other end TIG also managed to put 8 shots on goal. Gondolin had trouble with the Werewolves at the front, and when they tried to compensate it left the witty wights with too much room to operate. But thanks to Rog they managed to preserve the draw.

Gondolin 2-2 Tol In Gaurhoth
tot shots 15-18
on target 8-8
GOALS:
*13, 1-0 Gothmog (Elemmakil)

*75, 2-2 Gothmog (Elemmakil)
YELLOW CARDS:
*Gondolin- Galdor, Gothmog, Pengolodh

Tirion came into their match against the Downer weirdos nicely focused, while Hookbill's minions were a bit sloppy to begin. Tirion took advantage by building a three goal lead. Only a spectacular ranged rocket from Saucepan Man saved the half for The Downer.

The second half started the same, but The Downer did begin to find better focus as things moved along. After Finwe's penalty at 68 minutes Tirion fell back to defend and managed to keep The Downer at bay until the very end when captain Hookbill tapped it in on a heads up scramble play.
