U10 Green CCCFC 1 Westbury 3 Print
Season 12/13 - Under 10 Black & White

No complaints today - having had time to reflect on a game I think we should have got something out of, I can say:

There were some very good individual performances today:

Toby and TomĀ tackled well. Jay and Joe were tremendous in defence and midfield. Zac and JJ terrorised their full backs, Nick and Rory battled manfully up front and David and Archie were very forceful in an attacking sense. It just didnt come together as team.

Thats fine - if we were no good at football, then we should be worried. But we are good at football - we just need to find that game sense, that maturity and that determination that makes us difficult to get past. The truly encouraging thing is that we were much better in the second half than we were in the first - the worrying thing is that we conceded 3 goals again from second balls bouncing around in our box.

We started the first half really well and should have taken the lead when Nick had a clear shot and Jay couldnt quite get the rebound into the net with his left peg. We conceded a couple of scrappy goals where Archie bravely stopped shots but then theĀ attackers outnumbereed the defenders in the melee leading to 2 poked goals.

In the second half we had to use 2 of our best midfield players (Jay and Joe) in defence and this really shored us up back there. we did concede a third though at a time when we were well on top. David took up the mantle in the midfield breaking through the gainline a number of times -Zac was carrying the threat to Westbury also looking dangerous. A well worked move featuring JJ and Archie led to our No 10 slamming the ball in to the net. Archie continues to work hard and is starting to get his rewards now. We could have had 2 or 3 more during this period- but the whistle went before we had time to do that.

Unlucky guys- it will come. Much more positive than last week
