Match Roundup Saturday 8th November

Back to Cefn Onn School after a week without any games but a great training session on Monday night. Three tough looking games this week but great news for the team with Adam fit and well and back in the side.
Heol Hir Black 2 - Maindy Corries Black 1
A really bright start against a pretty organised Maindy side led to an early lead through a great throw in, good work from Matthew holding the ball up, and a great finish from Kyle. The team finished the first half 1 -0 up and fully deserved it. The second half saw a determined Maindy side put together two decent attacks leading to an equaliser but we were not going to settle for a draw and piled on the pressure with great wing work from Josef and Alice and far too many shots to keep count. The continuous pressure helped to win corner after corner until a clever pass from Alice and a great turn and shot from Matthew got a well deserved winner late in the game.
Scorer(s) Kyle 1, Matthew 1
Heol Hir Black 1 - Star FC "A" 0
The second game saw Kyle, Matthew and Josef take a well earned rest allowing Lucas, Tyrone and Liam to start after sitting out the first game. Another good start led to a well taken early goal from Lucas after some solid tackling and neat passing in the midfield from Gethin and Tyrone. Some good work on the wings from Alice and Liam put Lucas through for some great shooting chances but Star did well to keep him out. Adam and Richard had to work hard at the back to protect the lead and Sam did well to keep a clean sheet helping us to two wins out of two.
Scorer(s) Lucas 1
Heol Hir 1 - Grangetown BC Blue 1
After a very physical game a few weeks ago it was good to see the team started confidently and showed Grangetown how well they can play. A hard fought first half ended goalless despite some brilliant attacking football from both sides. It had looked like Grangetown had scored early in the second half but the goal was dissallowed for a cheeky handball. Some hard work and decent passing from Kyle and Gethin led to Lucas getting his second goal of the day and it looked like we could get three wins but Grangetown worked hard and grabbed an equaliser. The game ended in a draw and helped us to finish the day unbeaten.
Scorer(s) Lucas 1
Man of the Match
As usual picking the Man of the Match was extremely difficult with every player putting in 100% effort and playing some of the best football our ever supportive parents have seen them play. Well done to everyone this week it was definitely one of the best week's we have had this season.
For his excellent work rate, great movement and effortless finishing Lucas was named this weeks Man of the Match. Well done Lucas getting two great goals this week.
