Cannock Town Jrs U10’s: 0

Boldmere Falcon Colts U10’s:  5

 

A perfect day for football, and Boldmere were really fast out of the blocks. 

In the second minute, a great move down the left hand side involving Alistair Wells, Jake Freeman and Ethan Caballero almost resulted in a goal, but Ethans shot just flashed wide of the far post. This set the tone for the rest of the game as Boldmere passed the ball around their much larger opponents. 

Cannock almost conceded again when Ethan Caballero went past two players down the left hand side, and pulled the ball back to the edge of the box to Jake Freeman. His goal bound shot was blocked superbly by a Cannock defender and the ball just went past the post. 

Frazer Austin on the right hand side was occupying two defenders at all times and creating space for his team mates. The inevitable breakthrough came after 7 minutes, following a scramble on the edge of the Cannock box, Jake Freeman passed the ball back to Brad Priddey, his first touch was superb to get the ball out of his feet, and he struck a great cross shot into the opposite corner of the net. 

Boldmere were in total control and from a Cannock attack, Brad Priddey won the ball and passed it out to Will Jones, his first time lay off for Ethan Caballero completely opened up the Cannock defence, and Ethan ran through on goal to finish with a low shot past the keeper. 

Some of the football that Boldmere were playing was a joy to watch and their goalkeeper George Smith could only stand and watch. On the few occasions Cannock got into the Boldmere half, he commanded his penalty area superbly.

2-0 at half time and the score did not really reflect the superiority of Boldmere's football. 

In the second half, Jack Whitehouse on the right of midfield was supplying a lot of passes to his team mates and linking up with Liam Nevin in midfield. From a Liam Nevin pass out to the left Ethan Caballero made it 3-0. He pushed the ball past the defender on one side and ran around him the other side, he ran on another 20 yards and fired a superb shot into the far corner of the net. 

The fourth goal arrived soon after, and again Liam Nevin was involved. After collecting a pass from Jack Whitehouse, he was through on goal and his shot was deflected to the far post where Ben Caughtry was waiting to tap the ball home. 

The icing on the cake and probably the goal of the season so far was the fifth and final goal. Cannock town were bearing down on goal in a two v one situation. Unfortunately for Cannock, the one was the tenacious Alistair Wells. He won the ball superbly by staying on his feet and waiting for the right moment to tackle. He came away with the ball and waited until there was a player available. 

He passed the ball down the left hand side to Jake Freeman, who performed an outrageous dummy to enable the ball to run onto Ben Caughtry. Jake then overtook Ben down the line and Ben played a superb back heel into Jake's path. Jake played a low hard left foot cross into the box where Frazer Austin was waiting unmarked and he steered the ball home for a wonderful team goal. 

Boldmere continued to open up the Cannock defence but failed to add to their lead. George Jenkins was superb at the back, he cancelled out a lot of Cannock attacks and showed a lot of discipline to keep his position. 

Man of the match was selected by one of the teams sponsors. He chose Frazer Austin for his composure on the ball and always looking to pass the ball.

Man of the Match:            Josh Hetherington

Goal Scores:          Platini Kamden (2); Alex Reely

 

Another great match where both team gave their all and the football flowed from end to end. Both teams were into the match from the outset, and chances were being created at both ends straight from the kick-off. This was not a cup-tie where teams were nervous of making mistakes, both teams attacked and defended with equal passion.

 

It was Aldridge that took an early lead in the 4th minute. As was typical of the match Boldmere applied pressure and following a succession of corners equalised through Alex Reely within two minutes. Boldmere then got caught playing about with the ball in their own penalty area instead of clearing the ball and Aldridge scored to lead 2-1 at half-time.

 

In the second half Boldmere started to become dominate in the match. They managed to apply some sustained pressure and equalised with a magnificent long range shot from Platini Kamdon. At this point Boldmere looked as if they were going to push on and win this match. Then in the 51st minute they switched off. Aldridge put in cross from the left Boldmere waited for it to bounce and Aldridge fumbled the ball in from close range. Less than a minute late with an identical copy of the previous goal Aldridge gained a 4-2 lead. Boldmere pushed three up front and a minute later Platini Kamdon scored his second and gave Boldmere a chance. With Boldmere pushing forward Aldridge caught them on the break but some heroic goalkeeping kept Aldridge out. Boldmere created some good chances and so nearly got the equaliser in the dying minutes.

Boldmere Falcons U11’s: 4

Holy Souls U11’s: 0 

High flying Boldmere went into this game with very little match practice due to the weather over the last few weeks and with a couple of players missing. The Falcons quickly asserted their superiority as they dominated midfield and created several chances which with a little more of a cool head would have seen them hit the net at least twice before the first goal came with a poachers finish from George Grigg. Boldmere conitinued to press & it was no suprise when Joe Webb scored to double the home side's advantage. A mixture of some lacklustre finishing, last ditch defending & some very strange offside decisions saw Holy Souls hold the Falcons to just the two goal lead at half time.

 

The second half began as the first with Boldmere well on top having settled into their familiar pass & move flowing football that the spectators have come to expect. It was no surprise then when the best move of the match saw Andrew Perry beat his man wide on the right, trick the defender on the touchline & then pick out Nathan Quinlan wuith a superb ball who crashed a left footed volley past the despairing away keeper. It looked like an avalanche of goals would come as the Falcons trime & again created chances which on another day would have found the back of the net however these chances came & went until from a free kick fully 25 yards out Joe Jobson floated a ball in that deceived everyone, including the Holy Souls keeper, to find the bottom right hand corner of the net. It was nice to get back to playing a competitive match & Boldmere will play a lot worse than this and come away with a bigger scoreline in their favour. The Roskell Davies Man Of The Match was awarded to Andrew Perry for a fantastic all round performance.
