Sunday Round Up
Part 1 : U8-U11
Panthers U8 report
What a great game. It was end to end. We started off quickly and found ourselves leading with goals from Jenson, Henry, Harry and Lucas. But the last two quarters the boys started to feel it and was struggling with the heat. David pulled some great saves in goal to keep us ahead with Oliver strong at the back. If it wasn’t for the over extra 2mins the ref gave, it would have ended in a draw, but some lack of concentration and a last minute goal proved too much for our boys. However my man of the match went to James, he was solid at the back and put some great tackles in. Well done James.
Those are the teams we want to be playing every week to improve ourselves. Once again, well done all of you.
U8 Thunder
Another fantastically dominant performance by the boys.
Took a little while to get the breakthrough in the first quarter but when Eryk took the bull by the horns he provided two assists which put us in a great position for the 2nd quarter.
2nd quarter, flood gates opened with a Freddie Hattrick and Archie rounding of a massive quarter.
3rd quarter and against more players the goals dried up by the passing and determination certainly didn’t.
Another 2 goals in the final quarter rounded of a great display.
AFC Stoneham U8s Jaguars V Hamble United
Played a good unbeaten side today, the boys played really well and it was a very close and competitive game. After getting off to a good side we let the lead slip.
Goals
Sam Purchase 2
Leo Gritt 1
Mom
Louie Purchase didnt stop running and his all round play was very good today
U8 Spitfires
Spitfires continued their great start to the season against Pace Panthers. Some excellent passing by the boys and great defending when required. Hit the woodwork numerous times and felt we would never score. The persistence though did pay off in the end. Some great shooting by Brody Hibberd, Adriano Philips & Elliott Finch. Special mention to Henry Polkinghorne for a superb display and energy all game. POM could have gone to anyone as a great team effort but Brody Hibberd took the award. Well done boys. Proud of them all.
U9 Panthers
U9 Panthers had a great game today. Following yesterday’s exploits in the JPL, the team put in a fantastic performance. Goals from Antek, Jack, and Dexter coupled with some heroics from our outstanding keeper Tate ensured a great result today. Well done Panthers
U10 Spitfires
A great team performance against Littleton today resulted in a dominant score line for the Under 10 Spitfires. It was encouraging to see the boys apply pressure for the full 60 minutes, with some great passing and movement across the pitch. Unselfish play saw 6 players on the scoresheet with Freddie scoring 4, Alfie 2, George 2, and 1 each for Charlie, James and Zack. Congratulations to Freddie who was awarded MoM for a great performance up front. A special well-done to goalkeeper Charlie who played really well in his first league game this season for the Spitfires.
U11 Royals
U11 Royals won 9-3 today. It was a great team effort, with goals Jack, Ben, Shimmy, Alistar, Rhydian and Noah. The man of the match was Alistar.
U11 Jaguars
Aka Tommy's Terriers
Great game for the jags today against a good fawley side, the boys went behind early but bounced back with a tidy finish from Elliot assisted from a composed pass by Owen. Freddie went on a lovely run and another quick thinking ball from Owen put Elliot in for his Second of the day. The game was back and fourth but the boys fought there way back throughout first half with Elliot getting his hatrick with a top bins free kick. The boys pushed on second half to go ahead for the first time in the game with 2 more solo goals from the in form striker. Overall a great team performance where every player worked their socks off. Motm today Elliot with just the 5 goals and rockets in his boots! #upthejags #upthepurps
U11 Lions
A good game today from the Lions but a draw was a fair reflection of the game with a last minute Lions equaliser just to make it feel a little bit better. Man Of The Match went to Josh for his brilliant pressing, adaptability & first half strike. Positives definitely to be taken from today, Up The Lions!
U11 Panthers
U11 Panthers had an early kick off today against a very skilful Sholing team in one of our toughest games in Division 1. The lads didn’t disappoint and put in their best performance of the season. Defending from the front and battling for every 50/50 and spoiling play in the midfield. Goals from Fin, Jacob and Oliver combined with outstanding displays from stand in keeper Eddie and an outstanding defensive display from Charley ensured we got the result we deserved. Well done Panthers
Well done to everyone!
