U9 Calcio Talent & Select - First Touch Blacks

Overall, a really positive performance today considering we were missing half a team and had a mixed squad that haven’t played together before.

I thought we showed great resilience as a team coming from behind in the game and kept showing some good bravery when playing out even though sometimes we got punished for it.

Sometimes, we just need to be prepared to receive the ball under pressure and not let the opponent step in front to win the ball.

Our desire to win the ball when done well - sprinting to close the ball down gave us loads of opportunities to score. As we had countless chances and on another day could have scored more goals and won the game.

Thank you to everyone who stepped in to play for us today and I hope you all enjoy the rest of your Easter break 🙌
