Match Roundup Saturday 29th November

A cold end to the month and this week's fixtures were at Cefn Onn School again. We started the morning down on numbers with only seven players as Adam, Liam, Lucas and Tyrone were not able to play this week. A big thank you to Dafydd and Jason for the loan of Max for the morning who did a great job up front scoring three goals for us.

Heol Hir Black 5 - Calvery Blue 0

New opposition this week and the first all girls team we have ever played. A good start for us quickly led to our loan striker Max getting an early goal after some great passing and unselfish play set him up with an opportunity to show us his finishing skills, which he did brilliantly. Good work down both wings from Alice and Josef and neat passing from Kyle and Gethin through the middle put pressure on the Calvery defence and forced an unlucky own goal and a 2 - 0 lead at half time. The second half started well and we kept the pressure on leading to a lovely finish by Kyle after a great ball from Gethin. Alice got her name on the score sheet with a well taken goal after working hard and getting several good chances. The game was rounded off with a second for Kyle with another well placed shot proving impossible for the Calvery keeper making it a comfortable 5-0 win.

Scorer(s) Max 1, O.G. 1, Kyle 2, Alice 1

Heol Hir Black 3 -Star FC "B" 1

Despite having to field the same team as the first game the team came out looking fresh and started the game confidently. A slight change this game with Alice in defense with Richard and Matt on the right wing. Excellent passing and continuous attacks earned another goal for Max. This time a clever glancing header as the ball drifted across the box found the back of the net putting us 1-0 up and looking quite comfortable. The first half ended 1-0 even after some good shots tested the Star keeper and a great break found Josef in on goal but he was unable to put it past the keeper. Another goal from Max in the second half put us 2-0 up and the teams confidence was showing with some brilliant movement and neat passing creating attack after attack. Matt earned us a third with a great cross from Gethin finding him in space and Matt controlled the ball brilliantly, turned and finished it beautifully. Great tackling at the back from Alice and Richard and some good saves from Sam kept Star from scoring and getting back in the game. Late on Star created a decent attack and Kyle as usual tracked back faultlessly but in trying to clear the ball while running at full speed he was really unlucky to find his own net. the game ended 3-1 to us and was another really good performance despite the cold weather and the team being short on numbers.

Scorer(s) Max 2, Matt 1 Kyle O.G.

Heol Hir Black 0- Heol Hir Red 2

With a very cold and tired team it was a difficult final game which despite some solid defending from Sam and Richard and some first half saves from Matt ended with the Reds taking their first win against us for some time. Some decent attacking football was unable to beat the Reds new keeper and we were just too tired to contain the pace and commitment of the returning Daniel who scored both goals for the Reds.

Scorer(s) None

Man of The Match

Every week just keeps on getting harder to choose a Man of the Match and with seven players and a loan player making up the eight it has to be said the team performed brilliantly and should be pleased with the results they worked so hard to earn. Maybe next time we can get our usual good result against the Reds. After giving 100% effort all over the pitch, great attacking and defensive play, clever passing and two great goals this week's Man of the Match was awarded to Kyle. Well played this week Kyle.
