The closely contested game was played on Chesterton Sports Centre’s 3G pitch. Players were invited to just turn up, split into two teams, and play. The bibs eventually won by nine goals to seven.

Jo Bull, Cambridgeshire FA Football Development Officer said: “It was a great match and played in an excellent sporting spirit. The players are all really keen for more regular matches to be arranged and I would be delighted to hear from anyone else who wants to get involved.”
