Abbeymead U10A Match Report 15th Oct
HUCCLECOTE 0 ABBEYMEAD A 3
This League Cup fixture was the first of back to back matches between these two sides, and although Abbeymead never really found their rhythm, they did take an early lead when Ryan Couling scored from close range by following up a long shot from Brad Palmer.
Although Rovers created the majority of the chances, Hucclecote did threaten a couple of times in the first half, the most notable when their center forward was put clean through with only the Rovers keeper Sam Goodchild to beat, but the keeper was quick off his line closing the Hucclecote player down, who then put his shot harmlessly wide.
Early in the second half Luke McMahon hit the post and constant pressure from Rovers saw the Hucclecote keeper having to make a string of saves before Ross Martin put Rovers 2-0 up with 9 minutes to go. Martin scored his second five minutes later to put the game beyond Hucclecote. Rovers even had the luxury of a missed penalty which was well saved by the Hucclecote keeper.
Abbeymead: Sam Goodchild, Bradley Palmer, Matt Hartshorn, Brad Vanstone, Ryan Couling, Ross Martin, Luke McMahon, Matt Williams & Josh Vallender.
