U8 Orange - Hillmorton Clarets

CLOSE GAME

Very happy with performance overall today especially the high intensity and passion both teams played with. Our positioning as a team is getting better and better and support is always there for all players which is fantastic. 

Key takes from the game:

- That's the best game Benji had in all those few weeks. That's the great player that I know. Could have been easily best player if it wasn't for the perfect display from Alfie.

- Alfie today was an octopus, making save after save with rushing out and closing angles on players. Even as outfield, provided an excellent over the top pass that was just unlucky that's not an assit and great tackles as well 💯

- Oscar scoring a hatrick but could have easily been 7 or 8 goals and same for assists.  Great feet, we will need to work on releasing ball a bit faster

- Zach is astonishing me in how fast he is improving in his runs and positioning.  If it was his day he could have scored half a dozen himself as well

- Basant with best game from him as well this season.  Him and Farley are reading the game like a book. I even changed some plans based on Farley comments, who was showing the superb energy as always and topped it with a great assist for our 1st goal.

- Andi and Long were really brave providing good tackles whenever needed.

- Arthur as always solid at the back and great in building play from the back. Will need to work more on scanning 

Thanks all for coming today and see you all Friday
