Match Report: U11 Colts v Faversham Strike Force

The game saw a strong start for the Risers with an immediate free kick for Ryan only slightly wide and some great passing and play on the right wing from Noah and Ashley. Faversham began to put together some good play and Blake was forced to make a great save, tipping the ball over the bar. The game was evenly balanced with end to end play. Faversham earned three corners in quick succession but some frantic defending saw the score remaining goalless. At the other end, Fin put in a great ball through to Ashley, who saw a good shot saved. Faversham were soon attacking again with Hayden and Ellis both making vital tackles and sending the ball back up field. Harry and Noah put together some lovely, attacking play on the left but it was Faversham who went ahead with an unstoppable shot. The Risers immediately responded with some great play from Hayden, Dylan and Ashley but again it was Faversham who found the back of the net. The half ended with a corner to the Risers, and a good shot narrowly over from Ryan. 

The second half began with a strong start for Faversham with the ball hitting the crossbar and then a great save from Blake. A third goal soon followed and Faversham began to look in control. Blake continued to make some good saves and Gideon and Ryan defended bravely. The Risers were still trying hard in attack with Sam and Ashley combining well to produce some threatening play and Theo putting in some great passes on the wing. Two more goals for Faversham came in quick succession, leaving the Risers with only a few minutes to pull one back. Some rare attacking from Hayden, led to a corner and then free kick going just wide. A tough game in windy conditions but a good, competitive match.
