Following from today's game, the team should be so proud of themselves, on how much they battled through and just like this goal attempt showed, no matter the results its the trying that counts 💪
We will keep turning up, trying and bettering ourselves... as a team👌⚽️
Coach Andy says:
I'm so proud of this team, playing Brigg today was always going to be a tough task, but we all learn from these tough games and better ourselves before the league starts.
For the first 15-20 minutes of each half, we went toe to toe with Brigg. When we put them under pressure, when Brigg was in possession of the ball, we forced them into mistakes. We was passing well and getting into good attacking positions. We need to work on getting the ball past the defenders quicker in the final third, to create more goal scoring opportunities by being more direct. This is something we will work on in training.
We also need to get the players to manage, when to sprint and when to jog, to stop burning ourselves out after 20 minutes on the pitch and at times the wingers and midfield was slow at tracking back. If we can get these things right, we will be a force to reckon with.
It’s easy to get our heads down with a 10-0 defeat but let’s look at all the positives for today’s game. The players are playing as a team, we just need to be consistent throughout the full 35 minutes per half.
Well done everyone, great to see the support from the parents that was able to attend too 👏
Coach Dean Says:
Well done to everyone for today's game.
It was a hard game against a well drilled team. They played in division 2 last year so have dropped down to our division 2 this season, so it was always going to be hard game. We created some good opportunities throughout the whole game and no one gave up which was really encouraging to see.
Both Chloe and Max pulled off some really good saves ✋🤚
We'll try to work on fitness some more in training, as some players seemed to tire on the full size pitch. There will be a few games like this in the coming season, but we'll give it our all.
Training on Wednesday will be as normal 6-7.30, see you there 👍
