Match report by Jason Seeley
1st half
In a closely fought match the start saw the players of both sides sussing
each other out and the game was open with both teams trying to take control.
The first chance goes our way with Eli creating the opening for Dan
Bowden who strikes it well but hits the side netting. Brandon’s goal kicks are causing the opposition
all sorts of problems with them landing just outside there box. Avon then hit
back with a good attack well saved by Brandon.
Eli is having a stormer despite a late night and on
one of his runs unleashes a 20yds effort which just goes wide. Owen is
delivering some pin point corners into the box but we are just not connecting
with them. From a corner the ball lands at Ryan’s feet and he steps inside two
players and delivers a great chip over the keeper to make it 1-0 to us. We kept
pushing foward but couldn’t score another before half
time 1-0.
2nd half
Lively start to the second half sees Dan Bowden have a good chance
again from a long goal kick by Brandon
which he forces the keeper to save . We are awarded a
free kick 20yds out and a great tactical change of free-kick taker, Owen for
Jacob, means Owen has the chance to produce some magic which he does with a plomb he steps up to the ball and curls it over the top and
in to the far corner of the net to make it 2-0 (great decision by the manager).
The Avon number eight then goes on a good run and forces Brandon to make a good stop to keep it at 2-0.
We then start to showboat a bit with Jacob going on a run from the back.
M.O.M ; OWEN SKINNER For his dead ball skills
and all round work rate

Avon kick off and straight
away Frys put them under pressure forcing a corner
early on. Callum
bangs in the first goal after good pressure on the full back by Kaka. A fantastic
one two between Callum and Kaka sees Callum thump in his second goal.A
half chance falls to Avon but Ellis quickly smoothers the ball. Avon come back into the game
applying pressure on our defence but we stay strong. 2-0 at half-time.
2nd half
Fry's kick off and straight away Harry Scott goes on a run
to the heart of the midfield. Avon score to
test our nerves. The game turns into a midfield battle with both sides flying
into tackles. Callum trys
to bend one into the top corner but the Avon
keeper pulls of an amazing save to deny him a hat-trick. In the last minute Callum is denied by the post and the game finishes Fry's
2-1 winners.
M.O.M RHYS GREENLAND Who was a little terrier in defence and midfield
and drove the team forward with some great tackles.
