Match Report: U11 Colts v Deal Town Rangers

The game was off to a lively start with an early shot from Fin. The first few minutes saw the Risers pressuring well with a skilful run on the right from Ashley and Fin winning a corner. Another corner followed and after a period of sustained attacking, Ashley scored the opener. Sam fed on a good through ball from Hayden and shot just wide. The ball was mostly in Deal’s half but Blake stayed alert in goal, collecting well on a number of occasions. Deal attacked again, but Theo defended well, sending the ball down the other end for an attack which enabled Sam to add a second. The Risers were playing well now and piling the pressure on Deal, with continuous strong, attacking play from Dylan, Hayden, Gideon, and Fin. Sam shot just wide and Dylan put in a strong free kick. Ryan came on and added further strength in midfield, putting in some lovely passes and a strong shot. Noah was brilliant on the left, putting in run after run. Deservedly, he was soon rewarded with an assist after his ball set up Dylan to score the third goal. 

The second half began in the same dominant manner. Ryan and Fin both put in strong shots and Noah continued with his speedy runs, forcing Deal’s keeper to make a great save. The Risers were pressuring all the time though Deal were still pushing forward when they were able. Although quiet in defence, Ellis was in command, clearing the ball well frequently, with support from Hayden and Theo. Harry continued to impress in midfield, putting in excellent tackles and distributing the ball well. In the last few minutes, Ashley almost added his second goal of the game before Sam took advantage of the ball bobbing around in the box and added the Risers’ fourth. Overall, a great team performance and comprehensive win. Man of the match went to Ashley for great work on the wing and in attack.
