U16 Calcio Talent and Select - All Skills Elite Yellow U16

We started the game slowly & went 1-0 down after 3mins. The goal came from not getting out to the ball quickly enough from a corner, and a good strike from outside the box.

The first half was quite even, with both teams creating a few chances, non clear cut though. We went into half time 1-0 down, which was a fair result.

We came out into the 2nd half with great energy, and made sure to stop the opponents playing through the midfielders as often. We created loads of chances in the 2nd half and deservedly equalised. It was a great piece of skill from Rhyley in the middle, who slotted the ball to Finn, who smashed the ball into the far corner to make it 1-1.

After our goal, we continued to dominate the game, creating more chances. The only threat from the opposition was a few long balls & bouncing balls, which the team dealt with the majority of the time. We scored an excellent goal to make it 2-1, some great attacking play down the left & a great cross from Jake, fell to Sam’s feet, who placed it into the bottom corner.

The last 10mins were abit nervy, with the opposition creating some clear chances, Nikita made some excellent saves to keep them out. We also, had to make 2 goal-line clearances which kept us in the lead. Some really strong, brave defending meant that we saw the game over the line & took a well deserved win.

No training on Friday, due to the charity event!
