Newton Aycliffe Youth under 10 Falcons hosted Darlington Spraire Lads and Lasses on a wet Sunday morning, after last week game was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch we needed a fast start.
This was a very even game and we looked good on the attack and solid in defence. Alfie, Jack and Will are doing great defensive work, Zack was assured in goal and Tom was having a solid performance on the wing.
Declan found gaps in the Spraire defence and Liam worked hard upfront. We took the lead towards the end of the first half, when Tom Jasper sent a rasping half volley past the Spraire keeper. Ht 1-0.
Second half was a tight affair, with Aycliffe creating most of the opportunities.The Spraire goalkeeper made 3 good saves, the last of the 3 was unbelievable. FT 1-0.
Not the best performance but good enough today. MoM Tom Jasper. A good goal and a good solid performance. Movement, tackling and passing was top notch so well done Tom and well done everyone.
Five wins in a row and now joint 3rd in the table
