Hucknall Sports U8's White 6 Ravenshead Phoenix 1

Sunday 30th November 2008

Sports played at home against Ravenshead Pheonix for the first time this season, on an overcast cold Sunday morning at Newstead Rec.

Sports began the game in a positive and normal fashion passing the ball to the flanks and attacking down the wings to get behind the Ravenshead Pheonix defence but were finding it hard with the well organised team keeping plenty of players behind the ball and protecting the keeper.

But on 7mins "BLATHERWICK" broke the deadlock with his normal clinical finishing in front of goal. The Ravenshead Pheonix defence closed ranks and kept chances to a minimum for Sports who were still positive and it was only a matter of time before the net rippled again
and it was from a long range shot on 14mins cutting in from the right by "HALLAM" which made the score 2-0 at the break.

The second half started with Sports attacking again but they got caught napping at the back allowing Ravenshead Pheonix to pull a goal back but this only ruffled the feathers of Sports. They then pilled on the pressure with some wonderful passing football using the whole pitch which the visitors had no answer to and goals from "TOWLE" on 25 and 27mins and a hat trick from "BLATHERWICK"  topped a great team performance from the hole squad.

Well done boys and a special mention to Man of the Match "TOWLE" for his Frank Lampard performance in midfield.
