Garforth 1 – 1 FC Pontefract

⚽ Logan
🅰️ Josh

A morning away at Garforth on their huge 4G surface, usually something that suits our style of play perfectly.

However, with only 11 available, fitness quickly became a big factor and the lads were put to the test.

The teams were evenly matched, though we arguably created the better chances. Unfortunately, our finishing let us down and we went into half-time at 0–0, still searching for that clinical edge.

The second half followed a similar pattern until Garforth capitalised on a long kick from their goalkeeper. A tricky bounce caught us out, allowing their attacker to break through and lob our keeper for 1–0.

At times we relied too much on individual play and didn’t make the most of the space available, which made things harder for ourselves.

To the lads’ credit, they kept going and eventually found a breakthrough. A well-weighted through ball from Josh sent Logan racing clear. He showed great footwork to beat a couple of defenders before firing home confidently to level things at 1–1.

With a few players carrying knocks, we had to reshuffle positions, but the team kept battling.

With 17 minutes to go and the game finely balanced, we were handed a golden opportunity from the penalty spot. Unfortunately, the recent good run came to an end as the effort went wide, which summed up our morning in front of goal.

In the end, a draw was a fair result based on the overall performance.

We’ll get another chance to put things right when we host Garforth at Ferry Park later in the season.

FCP 1 – 2 Thornes

⚽ Maxi

Another rollercoaster of a game for the U14s today.

We started strongly and kept most of the play in their half early on. Within the first five minutes, Tommy J struck a powerful left-footed shot from nowhere. The keeper managed to save it, but Maxi reacted quickest and finished the rebound to put us 1–0 up.

We were the dominant team throughout the first half, hitting the post and creating a few more good chances. It easily could have been 3–0 by half-time, but we went into the break with just the one-goal lead.

We made a slight change going into the second half, bringing on our first sub. Unfortunately, it felt like a different team after the restart. The boys seemed to lose some of the drive and energy to compete.

For about ten minutes we struggled to get out of our own half, and the football wasn’t at the level we’ve seen from the team in recent weeks.
Then a silly tackle in the box gifted them an equaliser from the penalty spot, 1–1.
We then had to remove our centre-back from the game, which forced a few more changes during play.

With 10 minutes to go, we at least deserved a draw. But an error at the back allowed their main threat through on goal, and he finished well to give Thornes the lead 1–2.

We felt we should have been the team to end their unbeaten streak today, but unfortunately we gifted them the three points.

That said, it shows we’re a side capable of competing at the top end of this division.
A debut today as well for Luca. It may not have been his preferred position, and having only just met some of the team, he held himself well. I’m looking forward to seeing what he can bring to the team.
