Played on Sunday 5th July:
U9 div 3 v Wenty Waratah Loss 4-0
U13 div 4 v Pendle Hill Draw 1-1
It was a tough game with the play moving from end to end. After the best of
field position and the lead for 55 minutes we finished with a frustrating
1-1 draw. Ryan, without question our major striking force, hit the back of
the net yet again. Though scoring is essential it needs to be said that it
takes a lot to keep the ball away from our own goals and give the forwards
the chances. At the back Scott gave his usual amazing, acrobatic effort
while Novvie showed great commitment and skill in defence. Exhibiting some
pleasing new aggression today Fadi took the ball in the air a number of
times and depriving the opposition of time to react. Andrew B again put
himself in places where he could hustled the ball from the best of their
guys. Nathan is ever the games "thinker", reading or making the play and
putting quality passes onto the toes of team members. It was confounding
that Thomas didn't score today but regularly was shut down by the defence.
Matty covered a lot of ground, and rubbed himself on quite a bit of it,
while throwing himself into tackles and coverage plays. Using his abundant
skills in numerous runs Andrew O cut through their players, stealing the
ball and feeding it through with slick, selfless passes. He was our MOTM
today. Thanks to Tyler and Ryan for pulling on the keepers gloves. Our
enthusiastic rookie Aaron is all finding his place. An unlucky days guys but
well played.
