Enfield Colts 0 v 3 Kensington Dragons U18s
The U18’s beat Enfield Colts 3-0 away in the Middlesex County Cup. The game started with the Dragons attacking up hill against a very strong wind struggling to get it out of their half. As the Dragons started to move the ball around and move into Enfield’s half they looked dangerous. The Dragons withstood more pressure conceding corners and free kicks but defended well. Then a breakthrough – a perfect pass to the Dragons running striker was netted past the on rushing keeper. The Dragons were reminded at half time to put pressure on the ball and keep things simple. Five minutes into the second half a deep free kick caught Enfield out and it was 2-0. Enfield’s discipline started to break down resulting in a sending off. With the bit between their teeth the Dragons’ domination was becoming more and more apparent and it was 3-0 before the final whistle. To quote the Coach “The team played very well and it was an accomplished performance. What was pleasing was the way the goals were take. But also how well the team defended!”
