U9 BLUES

AFC Sudbury U9s Blues 0 Long Melford Colts U9s Blues 2 (Sunday 11 April 2010)

Melford started the match very quickly, with Niall Foley scoring 37 seconds after kick off. Melford always looked in control of this game and were rarely being troubled by the home side. Joe Skillicorn added Melford’s second goal, a solo effort, just before the half way mark of the first period and Melford took charge of the rest of the half, taking the 0-2 advantage into the interval.

AFC started the second half more brightly, but the Colt’s defence was easily a match for the Sudbury attack, and repulsed all of the Sudbury advances. Following this early attacking period from the home side, the Colts supremacy was re-established and Melford dominated the remainder of the game, but, despite every outfield player in the Melford team having at least one effort on goal they were unable to add to the score line, but won comfortably.
