AFC Sudbury Under 10's - Match Report

30.09.07 - Long Melford Blues 1 vs AFC Sudbury Blues U10s 4

Both sides were ready for this local Derby and started off with good attacking play from each team.

The AFC midfield trio of Captain Christopher Lewis, Liam O Mara and parents nominated Man of the Match Seb Lingard started to exert controlled pressure with a number of good attacking runs from all 3, with a number of chances to take the lead going wide.

Against the run of play, Long Melford went 1 up with AFC’s defence stalling on commitment. The boys kept their spirits up well marshalled by their captain, with shots from Chris, Seb and a very well taken volley drive from Liam O,Mara just passing the cross bar.

After a good driving run from Chris Lewis and good interplay with Seb lingard. AFC won a corner and from the resulting corner kick Evan Gartland headed the ball home for the equaliser.

After half time the boys dominated the game with and a well taken volley from Seb Lingard, cleared the keeper to put the boys 1-2 up.

Chris Lewis scored the third from a corner and despite Long Melfords efforts, a number of saves from keeper Max Horkan, kept them at bay. AFC scored the 4th  when Chris Lewis slotted the ball home from another well won corner.

A good game by both teams with AFC the deserved winners.
