06-09-15 CUMNOR MINORS 3 v BRACKLEY ATHLETIC 0
The first game of a new season in the youth league and also playing on a new home pitch with one debutant ( Eliot ) and with the loss of George D and Ronan!! during the summer break, the squad of players were still all in good spirits and were looking to get the season of to a good positive start.
Cumnor lost the toss and so began by playing down the slope in the first half, they started the game very quickly and were putting the Brackley defence under a lot of pressure but without really creating a clear cut opportunity for the forwards of DOM and TOM, at the other end ADAM was mostly a spectator but with the game still goalless had to still be on his toes, GEORGE, JAMIE, HARRY and WILL were all battling well in the midfield but Cumnor just couldn't get that vital break through before half-time.....HT0-0.
In the second half JAMIE moved up to the centre forward position supporting DOM and after two or three half chances Cumnor finally got their first goal of the season when HARRYS free kick was parried by the goalkeeper only for DOM to nod in the rebound, (1-0 50 mins) Cumnor were now playing with a lot more confidence and with ELIOT now playing in the midfield and breaking up a lot of the play they were finding more space upfront, HARRY then made it 2-0 when he cut in from the left and curled a delicious shot into the top corner of the net (57mins) Cumnor still had to concentrate and stay focused with the defence of CAM,JOHN,COOKIE and the very impressive SCOTT doing a good job it was of no surprise when after a great run and cross from JOHN...DOM turned and shot inside the area to make it 3-0 (68mins), Cumnor then saw out time with MATTHEW making some good runs down the wing and ADAM keeping a clean sheet this was the perfect start to the season.FT3-0
A great start to the season with fitness sure to improve and with the boys attitude both on and off the pitch being positive things look good for yet another great season.
Man of the Match :- GEORGE M for some great battling in the midfield a captains performance.
special mention to SCOTT for a superb defensive display
