Rising Hope Mambas (year 6 Sept 2024) - Corby Warrior Knights

Corby Warrior Knights 0-4 Mambas 

A great squad performance! 

Building on from last week, the boys put in another performance they should be proud off. 

The high press worked very well for us today and we played a lot of good football throughout the pitch. The energy in midfield and upfront was good and the defence looked good as a back 4 with Alfie Mcgreevy full of confidence behind them. 

Two goals from Nathan Szczakiel first half both from the high press with great finishes, and Oscar O’Brien with a standout free kick was well deserved for the performance we put in, you could see the frustration in the Knights. HT 0-3 

We started the 2nd half a bit slower but grew into the game and they couldn't get the ball out last 15 minutes. Nathan getting his hat trick midway through the half with again the press and long range effort and ending the game with a clean sheet was also great for the effort the defence and Alfie put in. FT 0-4 

For us coaches it's rewarding to see the boys take into Sunday what we're practicing Thursdays and what we're asking them in terms of shape and confidence levels. 

Our best performance of the season so far! 👏🏻 👏🏻
