CULLERCOATS U12 3 KILLINGWORTH 2
Cullercoats can count themselves somewhat fortunate to walk away with 3 points on a day when they didnt perform as well as they can. The first half was poor as KYPC dominated most of the play and Cullercoats seemed to struggle with the hard pitch and the heat (in october???). 0-0 was the halftime score as cullercoats defended well but their midfielders wanted too much time on the ball and were often too easily disposessed by a KYPC player. The second half started much better for the home side and they scored a good opening goal when Charlie James had a good effort well saved and the follow up was turned in by Steven Turner for his first goal for the team. Killingworth didnt take long to equalise as a difficult looping ball caused Nicholas all sorts of problems in the sun and his attempt to clear saw the ball drop at the feet of a red shirt. Josh was fouled soon afterwards in a dangerous position and Oliver Stepped up with a fine left footed free kick that gave the Killi Keeper no chance. Again the visitors didnt give up and seemed to snatch an equaliser with a minute on the clock as cullercoats defence seemed to be tiring. The lads showed great character however and scored again right at the death as Lewis just about managed to keep the ball in play down the right and played a fantastic ball through to Luke who kept his composure very well to slot in the winner.
