coaching from the bench

That's it, run comes to an end, having dominated the game and being 1 up, we had been done by pens....gave a pen away in the game and then having missed chance after chance...we lost on pens 6-5

And that's a way to top the group....no goals conceded.
On to play off group A

Joint top is 1st place losers...im not having it...as solina.....we coming for you tomorrow....your going.home...your going home..

2nd game...no players sent off.
Tough challenge again but came away 3- winners.
Last group game tomorrow to decided where we finish.

My view for the opening ceremony

1st game 0-0...i went down to 9 men after having my gk & an outfield sent off.
Ref was so anti English you can tell.
But even with 9 men we created more attacking opportunities and when we had to defend...we were solid...so proud of the result....not the way it phased out

Final night before im in that plane going out to gothemburg....if its a good as last year I can't wait.
Good luck to all players and nations going out there.
Then its in to 2nd trials once im back....fingers crossed my 1-1 player who has manage to get to 2nd part makes a speedy recovery on her knee.
See you all in a week.
Don't forget to keep eye on my teams progress or even watch us live via gothia app...u15s group 56...mis gold...
Come on the England, let's do ut tonight and let's get it done in the week

Every weekend, someone wins a youth football match.

A few years later...
Many of those winners have already quit the game.
The medals are forgotten.
The league tables disappear.
But the players who still love football at 20, 25 or 30...
They are a coach's real legacy.
Winning is important.
Competition matters.
Children should always try to win.
But if winning today means sacrificing the player's future...
Was it really a victory?
The greatest youth coaches don't just build successful teams.
They build players who continue to improve long after they've left the academy.
Because one trophy lasts a season.
A player's passion for football can last a lifetime.
One question... and be honest:
If you could choose only ONE...

🏆 Win every youth trophy...
OR
⚽ Develop five players who become professionals...
Which would you choose—and why? 👇🔥
