Sandy Lane in Lydiate hosted
the encounter between AFC Liverpool under 15’s and Town Green FC in their second
game of the 2012/13 season.
The under 15’s AFC team created
very controlled and dominate display throughout Saturdays game against Town
Green. The first half saw the visitors pinned back into their own half for long
periods with AFC dictating the pace and direction of play in most areas of the
game and subsequently Jake Young the AFC keeper didn’t have to make a save
throughout the half. For all their domination and control of play AFC didn’t capitalise
in the final third of the pitch and wasted numerous opportunities and lacked attacking
intent or tenacity right through the team.
Half time 0-0
AFC continued with their control
of the game but started to push harder to create more opportunities and opening
to break the first half deadlock. Marcus McGinn and Ryan Patterson both came
close on a couple of occasions with efforts from the edge of the penalty area
and Mike McCay rounded of a solid defensive performance at right back by
overlapping the midfield and putting in some telling crosses from the right wing.
During a period of sustained pressure AFC earned a corner and the resulting
cross produced a penalty for the home team after Liam Worth was held back by a
Town Green player as he ran to meet the ball. James Tryer stepped up and coolly
slotted home the ensuing spot kick which was fully deserved for both the team
and James as they had given first rate displays.
Full time 1-0
A better overall display
from the lads on Saturday and they started produce a consistent level of simple
and affective passing football. With a little more determination and ownership
within the final third of the pitch from every player in the team and the games
should be won by larger margins in the coming weeks.
