U11 Cup - Calne Milan 3 CCCFC 0 Print
Season 13/14 - Under 11 White

I would be telling a lie if I said that I was looking forward to this game - but the lads did me absolutely proud.

We were well, well in the game up until 10 mins from the end. Calne (including our 3 'old boys' of JoshG, LouieL and ZacB) probably passed the ball slightly better than us, they definitely took their chances better than us. I would definitely say though that posession was even and the number of chances created was very evenly spaced.

The return of Joe N to the backline was fantastic as he mopped up everything that reached him, intelligently reading the game and snuffing things out before they reached shooting distance. Alex reigned supreme in midfield in the first 30 using his passing skills to great effect wheras Jayden showed the Calne defence a clean pair of heels more than a couple of times before slamming in shots. Both Toms, JJ, Rory, Ben and Felix were excellent on the flanks. Archie gave everyone a reassuring feeling by keeping goal excellently before coming out in second half and playing a selfless link up role to great effect. Max and Toby worked hard and made several goal saving tackles.

The thing we have to work on is not turning our back when challenging or blocking the ball - 2 goals came directly from this. This was never a 3-0 game - I wouldnt say we were unlucky to lose but things could have been so different if the ball had run a little differntly. The whole team should take a great deal from this though - Calne are a good side (half of them at least have recieved fantastic training in the past!) and we were never outgunned or overawed.

Well done all
