Match Reports

11 Boys v Albury United won 7 – 0
We showed all our supporters who get us to the ground at 8am that we aren’t just playing for a participation medal this year, we want back to back League trophies and the Cup !
It took us a while to get our groove on but with Dustin returning from a forced 2 week rest he was on fire in a dominant showing controlling our backline with Sam,Charlie and John. Ethan was solid once again, we have the best backline going around.Carl ,Billy and Josh were making great attacking plays so it was raining goals with Cooper and Lenny a lazy double each and Issy and Nick also finding the net.
However Zavier had the goal of the day , taking all the time in the world with a precision kick that rivalled the best penalty kicks of the World Cup. His smile was bigger than the soccer pitch for the rest of the game. Well done Zavier .
Cooper 2 Lenny 2 Issy Zavier Nick 1
By Lenny Koller

12 Boys v United won 5 – 1
It was a case of Deja vu, dominating the play early only to succumb to a defensive mishap and go a goal down.
Anyone would forgive the team if they lay down from here on, for this has been a familiar site over the last month.
Another loss would be added to the dismal month of June, and perhaps find any finals aspirations floating away on the Jelbart Park fog clouds hovering over the pitch.
But not today, my friends, not today.
The 12 year olds boys, the senior crew on the pitch, were the ones that flew the flag, most of them holding onto the barest glimmer of hope that if they impressed management enough, maybe, just maybe it might free them up for an opportune Fortnite dance or two at training, without having the impost of running laps as payment for such a bizarre and extravagant form of entertainment.
Tyreece was the first of his kin that decided enough was enough. Through pure desperation (deceptively ignoring Habo’s orders), left his post at centre back for a Howard corner, and pulverized the ball with a volley of such a force that it damaged the back of the net. This in all such a stark contrast to his complete air-swing in the back half, which coincidentally was seconds prior to the opposition scoring the opener.
This act of leadership by the centreback became somewhat of a catalyst in the second half for the other 12s to mount a challenge for goal of the season.
After Cooper went for one of his usual twinkle toed jaunts through the top of the box his shot was parried, if not caught by the opposition, hand ball.
The referee awarded a penalty with haste, and most of the gallery thought one of the renowned strikers such as a Lenny, a Cooper or an Ashleigh might take the spot kick.
But alas, remembering the feats of his centrebacks earth shattering strike in the first half, Trae wanted a piece of the action, wrestling others out of the way demanding the ball be handed over.
Traes rocket curled into the top left corner would’ve made Messer’s Ronaldo and Messi choke on their decaf vanilla lattes at the Moscow airport on their way out of the World Cup.
Not only was strike overkill against the 3ft 9inch keeper, who was only taller than one person on the pitch (the ref), but the back-flip celebration had the sideline a gasp, hoping the landing wouldn’t have him on one of those Fail-Army YouTube clips or with permanent neck damage. He landed as if he was the neighbours tomcat being perfectly spun backwards off a one story balcony.
The action was not over.
Enter Louis, known from this day forth as Cluneinho.
Cluneinho was watching Traes gymnastic taunts from the cold pine of the visitors bench. He tore at Habo’s arm with a plea to allow him to topple his teammates extravagances at centre forward.
In the dying minutes Cluneinho was awarded his chance. One of many corners on the foggy and damp morning which saw Cooper place the water logged pill on a silver platter, some would say gift wrapped about eye-height for our athletic gazelle like striker ,who sat like a rooster would over a flock of hens, perched on the front post.
Cluneinho left the safety of the sandy, dewy grass of Jelbart Park 2, only to rise horizontally, a feat of such epicness, of such a height and angle that it would baffle the most ancient of Greek mathematicians.
Whilst horizontal, the great Cluneinho swung his right foot- clothed in his size 7 Nike golden boot- a volley of such timing and grace that the sound was like a thousand car boots slamming shut in sync around Dick Road. It curled with precision into the top corner of the goal just under of the near post. A WORLDIE was scored.
Cluneinho, aware of his efforts, shuffled his way back to the middle of the pitch with such arrogance and swagger, dodging the praise and high fives offered from his mere mortal team mates.
Goal of the season has been called early, it goes to Cluneinho.
Honorable mentions must go to our U/13 girls who are the glue in the fabric of this outfit, and the cogs within the gears of this juggernaut. Without their creative spark and aggressive bodywork such opportunities for these uncanny U/12 misfits would only be the stuff of dreams. Daisy, Tahlia, Ruby and Ashleigh, hats off to you.
Also we must mention our two other goal scorers Lenny and Cooper, their fine efforts in front of goal are sometimes taken for granted.
So what now for this footballing equivalent of the Harlem Globetrotters?
Does this signify a one off? Or is this the turning point needed to see them grow into the players they idolise?
Can they go all the way like an U/12s version of a Leicester City FC circa 2016?
One thing is for certain, the entertainment they provide will bring the crowds back to local football.
Can’t wait for next week.
Goals: Tyreece, Trae, Cooper, Lenny, Cluneinho
Award: Cluneinho

Thirds v United lost 1 – 2
This match was the final one for the Thirds’ top scorer, Bautista, who is returning to Argentina after a stint in Australia on a school exchange programme. Bautista fitted into the team beautifully and will be greatly missed. Unfortunately we couldn’t manage a win for his final game but the team did come back from a lack-lustre first half, where we were down two goals, to score once, and finish the game playing ferociously well. Fittingly, that single goal was by scored Bautista himself. All the best to you, Bautista. Thanks to John and Helen for running the lines.

Over 35s v United lost 1 – 3
Coming up against one of the competitions heavy weights in Albury United, it is a game that is always played with a touch more passion! But unfortunately it was another week with less than a full complement of players meant that everyone who was there was expected to give a 110% and they did. Mark Harrison return for his first match after a long lay off and finished a wonderful passage of team play that lead to the opening goal. Unfortunately United were able to get that goal back and another 2 late in the game to take the points. Our midfield was exceptional all day with a best on ground effort from Kelvin Davies and a injury hit Wayne Davies. Thank you to John Coates for running the line and we can’t wait to get our full team back on the park to have a run at the finals!

Reserves Men v United lost 0 – 5
The trip to Jelbart Park over the weekend was always going to be difficult and a bit emotional with young Bautii Ayarza playing his final game for us before departing back home to Argentina! Will Habberfield was thrown a call up into the goals and accepted with a fine debut and was our best on ground. Two of the other young players Harry Maher and Josh Gardiner also had fine games. Mick Corkett once again lead the midfield well but we just can’t seem to put the ball in the back of the net as easily as the opposition do. Unfortunately it finished as a 5-0 loss but there is growth and improvement amongst so many of the team. This weeks trip to Albury City won’t be any easier considering they are the league leaders but as usual, the boys will try!
