On Friday afternoon, our U-9 boys football team travelled to Niton Primary for our second league match of the season. Unfortunately, we went 1-0 down in the opening stages of the game after Niton scored from a corner but we fought back well creating several half chances after good tackling. At half-time we spoke about passing the ball more and getting shots away. The boys responded well to these instructions as we worked hard to win the ball before getting the ball on the flo...or to create chances. After having 90% possession, we created some superb chances after some flowing passing with Stan's shot going centimeters over the bar, Corey and Jimmy hitting the post, Niton's goalkeeper saving two one on one chances and Finley slipping at the vital moment as he went through on goal before Jimmy's shot was hacked off the line as Niton desperately held on for a 1-0 win. Mr Collings and Mrs Townend both felt very sorry for the boys as they were desperately unlucky not to have won the match comfortably by a few goals, especially after such a good second half performance. However, well done to the Niton defence and goalkeeper for their match winning performance in the second half. Mr Collings is confident that if the boys can play again in their next match like they did in the second half then they will get the win they deserve. Well done boys!
