| Match report | A frustrating match where we enjoyed the lions share of possession but still managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Fulford took the lead through a great strike from Alfie, from a narrow angle. Copmanthorpe didn't give in and found us wanting a couple of times with not enough resources coming back to defend. In the second half a great move involving a pass from Luke to George, an early pass from George down the right to Andrew and a strong shot from Andrew saw us draw level. Sadly our inability to control the middle of the park saw Copmanthorpe break again and score a winner. Overall I was disappointed with today's performance. Not enough players looked like they really wanted to be out there and giving 100% for the team. I do not want to see players standing watching the opposition while they pass and move the ball. I also do not want to see players standing still waiting for a pass to reach them - the complete opposite of what you practiced with Mike in training on Friday. Too many people were also just kicking the ball, without thinking about how best to use their possession. Two players stood out for me today - Ethan and Andrew. Ethan is still very new to the team, but slotted in very well on the left side of midfield. He worked hard to win the ball, took up good positions and used the ball well when he had it. Andrew's workrate was second to none, both in defence and going forward. He used the ball well and took his goal well. |
