EBUFC U12's Green 4 - 1 Wickham market Sky

For the second week we ran out 4-1 winners however a very different contrast in competitiveness to last weeks opponents, Wickham putting up an excellent performance belying their lower league position.

Revenge is a dish best served cold, Joe reminded me before the game, having held a wrong from a Wickham player from last season, and duly the team delivered.

The first half was fairly even, Toby in goal and defensive three Eoin, Oli and James coping well with the Wickham threat.The Wickham goalie made a couple of saves but to be fair the game was even.

Half time talk from coaches Newman and Garwood focussed on movement, shifting the ball quickly and defending move deeply. Quite clearly this took time to sink in, our defence getting caught high and Wickham taking the lead on a breakaway.

Utility man Taylor came to the rescue after a fantastic passing move equalising. Joe put us ahead, despite encouragement avoided the silent finger to his lips treatment to his nemeses.

Our momentum work rate and confidence then took the game away from Wickham, top goal scorer Alex notching and MOTM Tom tucking away the fourth after a mazy run on the final whistle.

A decent performance some areas as always to develop but onwards and a good day.

Manager U12's Greens
