Lost 3-0
Faced with the daunting prospect of an Under 15b team,
and a team that had won four out of five fixtures to date this season,
including wins over the likes of Haileybury, the Under 14c team performed
extremely well. Led by Alex Manson, who
was very influential at the back, and with an inspired performance in goal from
Jack Adshead-Grant, the team fought back after conceding an early goal, to take
the game into half time at only 1-0.
After the break, the dogged defence continued, with Fred Latham and Tom
Jardine to the fore, and with a little over five minutes to go, Felsted had a
great chance to draw level, which unfortunately went just wide of the left
post. As Felsted piled forward in the
hope of an equaliser, gaps were left at the back, and Kimbolton managed to grab
two goals in the last few minutes.
All in all, this was a very impressive team performance
against an older, and more experienced side.
There was some good hockey played by all those who took to the field.
Man of the match: Jack Adshead-Grant.
