Heol Hir Black 1 - Llanedeyrn Bulldogs Red 0
A bright start with some neat passing and great movement on and off the ball. An early long shot from Liam came close to finding the net but was just wide. A good move with Liam playing a ball down the line to Matthew who put in a lovely cross set up Josef but his shot came close but didn't find the net. Matthew worked tirelessly creating chance after chance but despite two or three great attempts the first half ended 0 -0. More good football in the second half with solid defending by Adam and Liam at the back, confident goalkeeping from Sam and Gethin controlling the midfield. Alice did well to hold the ball up then found Gethin with a great pass who played the ball across the goal for Kyle to slide across the line taking a well deserved 1-0 lead. It looked like Kyle would be closing the gap on Lucas when late on he struck a powerful shot which the keeper had no chance of stopping but was unlucky as it hit the post and bounced clear. A good first game for this week for the spectators and a hard fought 1-0 win.

The second game started really well with brilliant confident passing and excellent movement across the pitch. Gethin and Josef worked well together down the left and kept possession despite several defenders putting pressure on them. Josef did well and laid off a lovely pass just in front of Kyle. What happened next stunned the spectators and the Llanedeyrn coach when Kyle struck a sweet right footed shot which curled towards the top right corner, clipped the underside of the bar and landed in the back of the net. Llanedeyrn were a little shaken by this but soon turned on the pressure and worked hard trying to get an equaliser before half time. Solid defending from Adam and Richard and a great save from Sam kept the score at 1-0 at half time.
The second half started well for both sides and Llanedeyrn really worked at getting an equaliser quickly. After some great passing and some difficulty clearing the ball by our defenders Llanedeyrn's number nine levelled the score with a great finish. They kept up the pressure and grabbed a second when the ball seemed to take forever to get cleared from the area and quick thinking from their number nine made a shooting chance which Sam just wasnt able to get a hand to. The game ended a very close 1-2 loss but there was a lot of excellent football played by both sides making it really entertaining for the spectators.
Scorer(s): Kyle 1
Heol Hir Black 1 - Llanedeyrn Bulldogs (U10) 1
After last week the Under 10's were looking to get some revenge and started really well with some neat passing and quick feet making it difficult for us to get going but within a few minutes we got back in the game and were looking likely to score. Gethin was excellent working tirelessly through the middle creating two or three great scoring chances but was really unlucky not to score. A 0-0 scoreline at half time set up an exciting second half with both teams keen to get the win. Llanedeyrn were first to score with a well worked move ending in a great finish from their number seven which Liam was just unable to get a hand to. This seemed to inpsire the team into getting at least an equaliser and a good pass out of defense from Sam found Kyle who played a clever pass across the goal which Matthew put away neatly. The last few minutes were a little tense with the Llanedeyrn side keen to get a win if possible but great defending from Adam and Richard and hard work from Sam kept them out and the game ended a pretty fair 1-1 draw.
Scorer(s): Matthew 1
