Match Report Round 1
For our first official soccer game we played ... the other Ermington United under 6 team. My team has been named Cahill, after Tim Cahill - legendary Australian and Everton FC player. It seems that all of the junior teams have been named after current Australian players. The other team is Aloisi. Here is my match report:
Ermington U6a (Cahill - Yellow Jersey) vs Ermington U6b (Aloisi - Red Jersey), Round 1:
Result: Cahill 1 def. Aloisi 0
The first game of the season saw a civil war between the two under 6 teams. Ermington won! Yet, Ermington lost. Cahill, resplendent in their alternate yellow colours, spent the first half of the match battling a determined attack from the red devils of the Aloisi side. Excellent keeping from Jack Brady kept the score at half time to nil all. The second half was a much more even affair with both teams having opportunities at goal. AJ kept well for the Cahill team in the second half and let nothing through. Jack and Joel were all over the field and always on the ball. Lexie had some big clearing kicks and narrowly missed a goal opportunity. Fraser and Sebastion mixed it up in the pack at every occasion, while Lachlan and James provided wonderful support on the outside. The only goal of the match (thanks to brilliant defence on both sides) was scored in the second half by Jack, who earned the Player of the Match Award. Well done to all of our players. you guys have really come a long way.
