U16 Calcio Talent and Select - U16 Halifax Town
A difficult game for us to start 2026. The opposition who are 3rd the league, and had only lost 1 game this season, so it was always going to be a difficult test for us.
We made it more challenging for ourselves with the 2 sin bins (rightly or wrongly).
I thought we played out much more consistently & more much effectively than we have in previous weeks, so that it is a real positive for us moving forwards (especially since this has been the focus for the last 2 weeks).
We showed good spirit towards the end of the game, scoring the goal from the set piece. We also had a few more chances to score and on another day, with better decision making we could have nicked a draw.
Overall, positives in terms of how we played out and the fight we showed towards the end of the game.
To compete against the top teams in our league, we need to ensure we are doing extra training & fitness in the week to match the players we are against.
We move onto next week’s game as we play away against Lincoln, the league leaders.
