Our weekly spotlight on one of the
leagues big games
Under-10 B
Hampstead tigers 2
EC1 Elite 5
THE latest of our Big Match Specials saw Islington emerge victorious
over Camden in a seven-goal thriller on Friday night.
Jason Williams put EC1 ahead almost immediately with a fine
individual goal.
A spectacular 15-yard volley from skipper Billy Bagot, swiftly
followed by a fine free kick from the captain saw EC1 3-0 up
within minutes.
But Tigers roared back with Ryan Turner twice denied by James
Boswall just before the break.
Boswall kept out Kristian Simmonds-Taylor at the restart but
he could not deny Gregory Hollywood a deserved goal after a
cute pass from Turner.
Harry Conway used his strength to get EC1 back into it, forcing
a decent save from Alex Parsons, while Williams and Bagot were
kept out by a double clearance from Ciaran Turner. Bagot was
quickly called into action at the other end as Simmonds-Taylor
and Ciaran Turner advanced, but Ryan Turner was not to be stopped
for 3-2.
Tigers comeback was short-lived however, as EC1 settled it just
before the end when Conway forced home the fourth and Arthur
Hayden scored from the tightest of angles for the fifth.
Man of the Match
BILLY BAGOT
The skipper led by example, defending when his side needed him
to, but showing composure and skill in front of goal |
