As I was at Mary Hare I didnt find out who had scored until the next morning. Only the prefects were allowed to read the newspapers until the papers were delivered in the Reading room at 11am. After breakfast I managed to persuade a prefect to find out who had scored for the Blades. He went to find out and came back to me saying "Mills own goal, Field two". Not the scorers I was expecting.
