Under 15 B league

Trowbridge F.C. v Thornhill Athletic B F.C.

The game started well with both teams playing some good football. Both teams had some great chances with Trowbridge playing looping long balls over the top to their pacey striker. The Thornhill keeper Jack Coliandris kept them in the game with some superb diving saves. Eventually though Trowbridge got through and scored a great first half goal. The score stayed 1-0 until half time.

The second half started with an early penalty to Thornhill for a hand ball in the box. Chris Jugessur stepped up and neatly finished it in the bottom corner. This was followed by a lovely goal chipped over Trowbridge’s keeper by James Makin. Both teams kept the pressure on well until a break by James Makin and Chris Jugessur led to a goal from a header by Chris. With the score at 1-3 Trowbridge really put the pressure on leading to some more fantastic saves from the Thornhill keeper Jack Coliandris and some very hard work from the Thornhill defence. Eventually a beautifully floated corner went in for Trowbridge.

With only one goal in it the intensity of the game went up a notch and the referee did a great job of keeping things fair. Nearing the end of the game Thornhill made another good break from some skilful midfield play leading to a great goal from James Doyle. The game finished 2-4 to Thornhill a great win to start the season. Man of the match for Thornhill was the keeper Jack Coliandris.

Well done to all the lads who played today. See you all on Thursday for training.
