A Quick Update!

Just a few bits to catch up on from last time! 

The last update I done was for the Merton game where we lost for the first time in 7 games! 

Could we regain our winning ways instantly, we met Old Coulsdon Colts. We had a late kick off at 2PM which left some players from both sides unable to make it but the game still went ahead. 

We had a good game on our hands as the game finished 3-3, we made some sloppy mistakes this game and we paid for it! We dropped the extra 2 points which would of been handy for the end of the season.

Next up we played Nutfield a team I have been waiting to play all year, the first time we played them it went down as a walkover for numerous reasons but it was time to play them, it was a nice day in Beddington Park, the pitch looked fantastic! The game didn't go our way at all, we just couldn't make our mark on the game although we was all over them, we missed to many chances on goal which any other day we would of capitalized on. The game finished 3-4 to Nutfield with them scoring within the last minute of the game. 

Our next game we played top of the league St Helier who are flying high in the league, they just came out of a loss in the semi final of the cup so they are looking for a big win agaisnt us! But Carshalton FC denied them, we had a sloppy start once again and it just seems that we always struggle to start the game ready and awake. The game finished 3-1 to St Helier and the boys played fantastic! 

I have got to mention that Connor Romo made two fantastic penalty saves in one game! 

Carshalton FC Win Streak comes to an end!

Carshalton FC 2 - 6 Merton Youth

Goal Scorers - 

Gideon Eluwa

Jamie Hare

Man of the match - Gideon Eluwa

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Just a quick mention to Daniel Perren who took the side over for this game! 

This game was if anything a learning curve for us as the first time we played Merton we lost 9-0 and to reduce the score to 6 and then score 2! We even took the lead just before half time with an excellent run from Gideon and a sublime finish.

We conceded some silly goals that we shouldn't off but we never stopped fighting! Jamie Hare managed to get his first goal of the season with a tap in after Peter Maddock managed to wriggle around a few players.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

This result really doesn't reflect on how the game actually went, we out played Queens Park in every aspect of the game but we couldn't finish to save our life today! The game should of ended at least 5-1 minimum but it just wasn't to be. We done what we needed to do and that was get the massive 3 points.

Our kick off was delayed by an hour I would say due to an injury to a player in the game before ours so we had to wait for the Ambulance to arrive. 

By this time all the boys were cold and freezing cold but was eager to play, we got into the changing rooms to do the starting eleven and off we set to the pitch.

We got off to a flying start by netting ourself a early goal within the first 10 minutes or so via a corner kick, only for James Eccles getting the final touch to get it in to the back of the net. Afterwards we had a few chances that had been ruled offside but weather they was or not is a different question, nevertheless we went into half time with the lead. 

I made a couple of changes - 

Connor Romo (GK)

Jack Cox (RB) Otton Ziminicki (CB) Eric Chaiyaphanto (CB) Oscar Williams (LB)

Peter Maddock (CM)

Gerard Bryne (CM) Gideon Eluwa (C) (CM) Jamie Hare (CM)

Callum Foley (ST) Saan Gharaman (ST)

Also Oscar Williams made way for Thomas Maddock, Otton Ziminicki was replaced by Matt Cole and finally Hamzah Iqbal was replaced by Peter Maddock.

Our second goal came with some superb passing and movement from the boys, from what I can remember the play involved Gideon Eluwa, Callum Foley, Gerard Bryne and Thomas Maddock. Callum Foley got the goal in the end and a cracking finish it was. 

We did concede one goal which I thought was offside and the linesmen gave it but the referee gave the goal!

The boys was clearly rusty when it came to playing, after not playing for over a month over the Christmas Break effected us quite early on. But I think we found our feet quicker than the home side. Carshalton had been on a 4 match winning streak and we wanted to carry on with streak. 

We had the disadvantage from the start as we had to go up hill on a frosty hard pitch, the boys put in a great shift the whole half with Hamzah coming close with the keeper making a save. We got it to half time with a score draw and we had everything in our hands. 

I made two subs, Niall Reilly came on for Charlie Chapman and James Turner came on for Jack Cox.

Hamzah Iqbal (ST) Saan Gharaman (ST)

                                                                                              

We came out fighting, if there was statistics for possession it had to be 70 - 30 we out played Mickleham with ease but we just couldn't get that finishing product. 

Hamzah, Saan and Gideon all came close with Hamzah clipping the post. It just wasn't our day specially when Mickleham had their first chance on goal from a counter and they managed to get the goal and I had to admit it was a great finish. 

The boys did not stop playing as they knew they deserved the goal, Gideon shot across goal with the keeper making the save. Niall took the corner only for it to come back to him, he went for a shoot/cross (he says it was a shot so I've got to take his word for it) it ended up in the back of the net as the keeper made a meal of it. The boys had the momentum back again but we didn't have enough time to grab that winner. 

The game finished 1 - 1 and for myself (Jon) it was my first draw in my life, it took me five years to get a draw and I must admit I didn't like it especially when we should of won.
