Moderator Returns with Breaking News

Apologies for the lack of up date on the blog.Especially Luke and Olivia after their star performances last week. Match reports are still pending me finding my notes from last week and what happens on Strictly, X-Factor, I'm a celebrity.

As promised breaking news:

Cuddington 1 – 2 Egerton Panthers U9’s

A solid team performance earned the Panthers a deserved victory. It took a while for Egerton to open their account but that wasn’t for lack of effort. Isaac Bennett went closest early on when he beat the keeper but somehow the ball didn’t cross the line. Leo Buckley was hungry for a goal and couple of decent long range efforts just missed the target. At the other end, Cuddington had chances too and it took a last ditch block by Andy Price to keep the scores level. The breakthrough came when Adam Lee’s hardwork won the ball back beat his man and fired in a low shot which looped up into the box and eventually fell to Ed Franklin who made no mistake crashing the ball in off the post. Cuddington came back and Archie Phillips made countless clearances and Mitchell Brown kept throwing his body in the way to block Cuddington’s path. Man of the Match Jasper Kearns’ handling was impeccable and a brilliant flying save preserved the Panthers’ lead. There was no let up in the second half with both sides creating chances with Paolo Tabone a willing runner up front and Ben Haselden making vital interceptions. When Archie Phillips was upended, Leo Buckley stepped up to make no mistake from the penalty spot. It looked like some fantastic defending was enough to earn a clean sheet but in the closing minutes Cuddington picked up a consolation but this didn’t take the gloss off a great team display.


Team: Adam Lee; Andy Price; Archie Phillips; Ben Haselden; Ed Franklin; Isaac Bennett; Jasper Kearns; Leo Buckley; Mitchell Brown; Paolo Tabone

Cuddington 0 – 3 Egerton Pumas U9’s

After suffering their first defeat of the season, Egerton were in mood to lose this game. The Pumas soon took the lead when Olivia French picked out Liam Birnie with a fine pass, who in turn neatly threaded the ball through to Jack Curbishley whose shot crept in at the near post. Egerton pressed for more with Man of the Match Freddie Sass making unbelievable runs to carry the ball from his own box to the opposition area while Tom Quenby’s dead ball delivery looked like another likely source of a goal. Although relatively quiet, Matt Willis’ handling and anticipation ensured that it was unlikely that they would concede. In the second half the Pumas doubled their tally when Ben Henthorn swept the ball out to wing wizard Bradley Hargreaves and Jack Curbishley arrived with perfect timing to sweep the ball home. More chances came and were spurned as Stan Smith went close and Jack Curbishely couldn’t complete his hat trick. Again Bradley Hargreaves turned provider when he slotted the ball through to Liam Birnie who coolly finished giving the keeper no chance and wrapping up victory. The Pumas clinched their clean sheet when Cuddington were unlucky to see a good effort come back off the post.

MANAGERS COMMENTS

CUDDINGTON AWAY

Hargreaves said; I thought we showed great desire to want to play football we competed for every ball and showed good awareness in wanting to pass the ball.He said; We created a number of chances where on another day we would of scored ten but these missed chances left the games tight and with the threat of the opposition scoring we had to work hard enough of the ball to earn two good wins and get us back to winning ways.

MANAGERS COMMENTS

TYTHERINGTON HOME

Hargreaves said ;After the game against weverham the team and management were abit deflated but a change in the coaching staff and a good rest brought the hunger back and the boys and girl were excellent. The determination was there from the first whistle as they battled for every ball and produced some excellent football the neat and crisp passing was made easier with the intelligent movement of the ball. He added; Now that the confidence is back within the team i hope we can push on and get back to winning ways.

Egerton Panthers U9’s 2 – 1 Weaverham

The Panthers ran out winners in a closely fought contest. Egerton created a host of chances with Archie Phillips beating the keeper but not the far post after being set free by Ed Franklin. A fantastic cross from Luke Granger fell to Ed Franklin who couldn’t quite dig the ball out. At the other end Weaverham kept Mitchell Brown busy in defence and Jasper Kearns had to pull off a great full length save to turn the ball around the post. Debutant Isaac Bennett picked out Archie Phillips with a slide rule pass and he was unlucky to see his effort rebound off the bar to safety. A goal less first half was typical of the Panthers of late – creating but not converting a hatful of chances. The breakthrough came in the second half when Leo Buckley’s long range effort was parried only for Archie Phillips to pounce. A second goal came in similar fashion when Andy Price’s saved shot fell to man of the match Ben Haselden who gratefully tucked the ball home to open his account for the season. In the closing moments Weaverham scored a consolation but there wasn’t enough time to complete a comeback.

Egerton Pumas U9’s 2 – 3 Weaverham

A Halloween horror show for the Pumas as they fell to their first defeat of the season.  From the off, it was clear Egerton were up against capable opponents when their first break up field forced Matt Willis into a smart save.  There was little the defence could do to keep out the ensuing corner which was nodded home to give Weaverham the lead.  Egerton responded and man of the match Jack Curbishley powered forward but his shot clipped the wrong side of the post.  Just before half time Weaverham extended their lead and the Pumas were in unknown territory being two goals behind for the first time this season.  A stern half time talk roused Egerton and early in the second half, Stan Smith waltzed through the Weaverham defence to pull one back.  Egerton had plenty of possession with Bradley Hargreaves and Liam Birnie creating chances.  Olivia French almost scored her first of the season as Egerton upped the pressure.  Chasing an equaliser, Egerton changed shape with Tom Quenby pushed forward leaving Freddie Sass to hold the rearguard as the team went all out attack only for Weaverham to pick them off on the break and restore the two goal advantage.  Stan Smith pulled another goal back but the team ran out of ideas and only heroics from Matt Willis kept the score respectable.

Team:   Bradley Hargreaves; Freddie Sass; Jack Curbishley; Liam Birney; Matt Willis; Olivia French; Stan Smith; Tom Quenby
