FREETHORPE U9s
This week played Burnt hill at home in the first winter conditions of the season. Playing against a skilful footballing side the boys were a little slow to start, and soon found themselves 2-0 down. Liam S was soon withdrawn following his sickness but found a able replacement in Ollie who played his game of the season tackerling well and passing out of defence to earn him a deserved M.O.M award. Just before half time Reece burst into life and scored a great goal to give Freethorpe hope for the second half.
Freethorpe came out after the break full of confidence. Thomas working hard as ever for the team quickly scored the equaliser after great work from Reece down the left. Aaron was again having a good game tackerling hard and passing long. Perry as usual was running, covering and prompting much of Freethorpes good play. Alex played well again mainly in a defensive midfield role he was a strong and influential presence as usual. Reece then got Freethorpe into the lead with another great solo effort. Freethorpe 4th goal came from Perry after a great flowing,passing move which was a pleasure to watch.Thomas quickly got the 5th to seal the game.Burnt Hill got a late consolation before Alex strolled through the centre and finished well for a 6-3 victory to Freethorpe.Luke in goal had a quiet game but remains one of the best keepers in the league.
