Match report

GREAT NOTLEY COBRAS U7  0  -  5   FOCUS FERRERS LIONS U7

 
 
We had a full squad to pick from today and the boys all started off working well.. We just could not break through the very spirited Cobras. The Lions were working very hard and had a lot of shots on target but the Cobra keeper was on good form. Tommy, the Lions keeper had to make two great saves this half and was very assured - his goal kicks were also top form today. Callum, Michael, Kai and Teddy were making some great clearances to stop the Cobras from scoring. The Lions were attacking most of the half and on 17 minutes Cobras made a back pass that wrong footed their keeper  - an own goal to make the scoring 1  - 0 to the Lions. This upset the Cobras somewhat but this is how it stayed at half time.
 
The Lions were a different team in the second half - the boys had now warmed up. Alfie and Joseph were working very hard in the middle of the park. On 29 minutes, Alfie made a great pass to Jack who struck a low shot in off the post to make the score 2  - 0   to the Lions. On 32 minutes Alfie again put a great pass to Daniel who struck a shot that hit the post. The ball came back to Daniel who buried the ball the second time round, 3-0 to the Lions. Our defence was still working very hard blocking any breaks the Cobras had. On 35 minutes, Alfie again put Aaron in the clear, who doesn't miss from that range, 4 - 0 to the Lions. This half was some of the best defensive midfield and attacking the boys had done.  On 39 minutes Jack hit a shot that the Cobra keeper saved but the keeper could not hold the ball. Jack followed the ball in to poke the ball home 5 - 0 to the Lions.. This is how it was to stay. Well done to all the boys - you all played well today. Man of the match was Joseph who did not stop working the whole game.  Thanks to Darren and Andrew the stand in managers for today.
