U10 Panthers playing up another two divisions from last season began with a hard fought performance ensuring they were very happy. Jacob Pinder, Ablaye Djallo and Josh Jervis were all excellent in front of goal. Great display and kept our heads after going behind. Man of the match Abdoulaye Jalloh for a great defensive display and playing in an unfamiliar position and performing very well.
U10 Tigers had a superb day. Outstanding performance to start the season. Every player was superb and showcased the hard work we have been putting in over the past months. Dominant in possession with our slick passing and movement, and our work rate too much for them out of possession. We created chance after chance at one end, whilst winning the battles in midfield to give GK Jack Binns a quiet day, who despite having quiet periods, kept into action with highlight reel saves when needed. Special mentions for Mustapha Suso who was electric in front of goal along with Spencer Winter. Louis Howard created chance after chance whilst Kristof Hollosy was another who caused the opposition problems all game long. MOM: Mustapha Suso.
