Match report NMJFC Under 8s Bees - 16/10/22
Sunday 16th October – New Mills Bees under 8’s vs Tintwistle Diamonds under 8’s
Today's game saw the Bees come up against a new team in Tintwistle Diamonds, we haven't played them before so didn't know what to expect from our opposition. The Bees had an almost full squad, only Rocco was unavailable.
First things first, Leo was designated todays captain and took care of the formalities, The game started brightly with each team putting some good passes together. The Bees mixed things up a bit and had Leo starting upfront with a midfield pairing of Stanley and Alexander. Joshua would be our rock in defence.
Throughout the first half, it was evenly matched with the Bees really pushing forward, Leo having a couple of chances to score. Our ever reliable keeper Toby made some good saves and everyone remembered the training drills and kept trying to pass and get the ball forward. Stanley was tenacious and kept going and almost got a goal himself. Alexander is learning really quickly about match play, great stuff !
Seren came on and was involved with some great midfield battling to get the ball. Charlie also came on and played in midfield, a not so familiar position for Charlie, but he adapted quickly and really got stuck in... what a battler! All the while with Joshua's stellar performance sweeping up and doing a brilliant job in defence.
The second half saw the Bees mix it up again with Stanley 'safe hands' Barton in goal and Charlie going upfront. Toby had an incredible chance to score, but the Tintwistle keeper denied another Bees attack. End to end stuff with free kicks and corners up and down the pitch.
A great break from the Bees saw Charlie notch up another goal. After that it was revolving subs with quick injuries and super quick subs when the players were ready to get back into the game. Stanley did fantastically well in goal making some really great saves...Top man.
POTM - Leo for all his running and tackling, well done!!! 👏🏻👏🏻
Everyone did well today, they played with a smile and enjoyed the game. The Bees are improving week on week and that's the greatest takeaway. GO BEES!!!
