MATCH REPORT - SAT 20 MAY

SAUGHALL COLTS 2 - 8 ROCKETS

Those watching on Saturday all agreed this was probably the best we've played in terms of passing, movement and some clinical finishing! To play to the level we reached in pouring rain was amazing. In fairness the perfect surface at fantastic facilities helped our game.

Over the years we've always been evenly matched with Saughall, often resulting in some ill tempered encounters. Today though our boys were on fire, moving the opposition about until they got disheartened.

William came off his sick bed and attempted to play through the pain barrier, and with just 2 subs and then William admitting he couldn't play on the 8 remaining boys all got a good run out. Charlie even got a go in goal and touched the ball once!

Goalscorers were Rory (3), Xander (2), George (1), Austin (1), Own goal (1). I think! If I've got that wrong please let me know.

Every one of the boys played their part - there were so many good moments its impossible to remember them all. Rory continues to destroy defences and since returning from injury Xander is now exceeding where he finished at the end of last season, having added killer passing to his game (same goes for Harry).

MOTM went to Austin who epitomised how we've been trying to get the boys to play. Break up the ball, speed of thought, pass, move, goal!

WELL DONE everyone. A performance to remember and a good day for Waverton as our Arrows won 10-0 on the other pitch.
