BEES MATCH REPORT - SAT 13 MAY

BEES 6 - 1 CHESTER NOMADS COLTS

A really encouraging performance after a good training session and warm-up where all the boys showed they can pass and move.  

We recorded our 9th win in 13 games since Christmas to keep our good form and progress going.

In the first quarter we started a little slowly and Samuel in goal and Thomas in defence made good clearances. It was particularly nice to see Isaac using his tackling and high energy. We ended 0-0.

After the first 10 minutes we talked to the boys about being first to the ball and raising the efforts to win possession. Soon after Samuel won the ball, headed towards goal and after a clearance Henry coolly slotted home his 14th of the season.

After that we started to dominate and Henry doubled the lead with a smart finish before Nomads scored an own goal for 3-0. Yazan also went close after good runs on the left.  

In the third quarter Ben came into the game as an attacking threat down the right and was really unlucky not to get on the score sheet. Oliver moved further forward into midfield and was doing what we asked by getting shots on goal and the ball forward quickly.

From a good midfield tackle we set Pablo free on the left who cut inside and buried his chance to the bottom right for 4-0 and Pablo's first goal. Shortly after Nomads conceded again through their own net from a perfect Ben corner.

In the final quarter Emlyn really showed what he can do against a tiring Nomads. He picked the ball up deep on the right, ghosted past two players before slotting home to the bottom corner. A great goal caught on video!!

Nomads did score late on to deny our defenders a clean sheet.

MOTM award was a tough call but we went with Emlyn this week. A great contribution and a very, very good goal.

We can still relax more on the ball and get into space rather than crowd the ball and own players. We can also work on attacking our set pieces as with Ben, Oliver and Henry we have quality corners and free kicks.  

Well done to everyone...
