U15’s Match Report: 11th October 2015
Cottenham Home Tournament
The King’s Lynn under 15’s intermediates team started the new season away to Cottenham, Rickmansworth and Sudbury on the 11 October 2015.
A young team with three new members had to work hard together for the first time showing true grit and determination in all games and were well lead by Finley the captain. Lynn’s new goalkeeper Harry Dugdale had an outstanding performance in goal showing her great reflex and shot stopping to help Lynn to win two out of the three games.
Our first game against Sudbury was a tough encounter. Lynn worked hard to break down a strong Sudbury team but were caught on the break a few times to go 2 – 1 down at half time. 
The second half was entertaining with Lynn hitting the post countless times but unable to get a goal. Sudbury scored one more to finish as 3 – 1 winners.
Final Score: Sudbury 3 – 1 King’s Lynn
Goal Scorer:
- Harvey Dugdale
Next were Rickmansworth’s u17s team which was one of the best games to watch with both teams giving it their all to win it. However two goals from Joseph plus one each from Finley and Harvey finding the back of the net, were enough to keep Rickmansworth at bay. Jason and Myah both played well in defence and help in the team playing well together and getting a well deserved win.
Final Score: Kings Lynn 4 – 3 Rickmansworth
Goal Scorers:
- Joseph Hawes (2)
- Finley Griffin
- Harvey Dugdale
Our third game was against Cottenham and was an end to end match with Lynn showing great defence and counter attacking movement to keep Cottenham on the back foot. The only goal of the match was scored by Finley which was from a defensive movement with great passing by the whole team to break the deadlock. Finley was also unlucky not to score from a penalty after Myah shot on goal was kicked away by an outfield player in the goal area. In the dying seconds of the game Joseph’s pin point pass to Myah put her one on one with the Cottenham goalie but she was unable to shoot due the final whistle going.
Final Score King Lynn 1 – 0 Cottenham
Goal Scorer:
- Finley Griffin
