Abbeymead Rovers Gladiators v Frampton Youth United
Mid-Glos Mini Soccer - Central League
Saturday 19th April 2008
Another testing game to look forward to as the Gladiators went away to Frampton but with only a team of seven players and no reserves due to injury, etc, the challenge was on!
Shortly into the game, Dominic Perris scored a beautiful goal into the top right hand corner of the net to give the Gladiators the lead and put the home team on the back foot. But this was not for long as despite some excellent defending by Alex Fleming, Robbie Searle, Freddie Whittaker and great sweeping work by Michael Ashetton, Frampton levelled the scored by half time at 1-1.
The Gladiators' efforts continued in the second half and despite the excellent ball control and passing by Ben Vallender, Michael Ashetton and Dominic Perris, they were unable to score again. Frampton broke through the defence again taking the lead. In scoring their third goal, the striker's follow-through incapacitated keeper Edward James who was unable to complete the last eight minutes. With only six players and Robbie Searle playing keeper, despite their efforts two further goals were scored. Final score: 5-1 (The Gladiators did win the fun Penalties at the end)
Man of the Match: Abbeymead Rovers Gladiators - Alex Fleming; Frampton Youth United - Jonathan Lewis
