Match Report ⚽️⚽️

Washington United 5 - 4 Santos

Real game for the neutral this one, it swung back and forth eventually coming to the final score. Santos probably deserved the win more but can't take anything from Washington United they played well and took the win in the end.

Cayden was Captain today, it worked out perfectly as he was returning from almost 5 months out after an operation. He was brilliant and the boys definitely missed him!!

1st half Santos were on fire, Leo firing in after some good team work. United then drew level and shortly after Leo grabbed his second of the game with a long range effort skimming off the ground bottom left, was a great hit, and then Leo again almost scoring a bicycle kick, but denied by the keeper with a great save. United then drew level again after the ball dropped at the feet of their player from a corner. 1st half ended 2-2.

2nd half the team talk went out the window immediately as United grabbed their 3rd. Leonardo this time was moved up top and was presented with an excellent chance which he buried bottom corner again. Unfortunately the kids completely switched off from a kick on, United player just strolling into our box from the kick in and firing in, we basically gave them that goal. Then an emotional moment as the returning Cayden was played through and again another low driven shot found the back of their net 4-4, the absolute joy on that kids face was unbelievable. United then pressed Santos and again following a kick in, managed to retake the lead as their player was left unmarked at the back post.

The coaches pointed out how good some of the football was that was played, the kids were knocking it around and taking Uniteds players ouf the game with ease, unfortunately they didn't keep it up but that was a great show to start and we hope they continue to do that as it was unreal.

We were missing some very important players today in Lexi, Riley and David but the kids dug in and were excellent today.

Next week we travel to Darlington for a tournament at our friends at the Allstars.

Match Report ⚽️⚽️

Santos 1 - 9 Leon FC

As we usually write, the score doesn't reflect the game, maybes towards the end it did, but make no mistake Santos were on top in the first half and looked like we were going to go on to grab a result, playing some lovely stuff, creating chances, it was a team goal today, everyone involved, the ball landed at Leo's feet, who drove down the left and played inside for Charlie who touched it to his right for David to finish for our first goal in 3 games.

I'm not going to go into a full report. But proud of the kids for doing what they do.

Charlie captained the side today and put on a good showing.

Leo grabbed man of the Match with a great 1st half display that caught the eye of the opposition coach.

The kids just need the belief that they can do it, as the game goes on it seems that the world is on their shoulders, they need to shake off those demons and go at these teams because they absolutely can compete at this level!!

Not much else to say except up the Santos!! ⚽️⚽️❤️🖤

Tournament Day ⚽️⚽️

Honestly we couldn't be prouder today.

The kids were brilliant, topping their group which was by no means easy, they showed grit, determination, heart and above all teamwork.

Something that rarely gets a mention, is that between games at tournaments you get to see their friendships blossom as well, as they spend more time with eachother, it really helps with how they bond on the pitch as well as off it.

Game 1 vs Prissick Rovers

A good side, very direct and caused us a few problems, we were able to come away with a 2-0 win. Santos played some lovely stuff particularly towards the end of the game to see it out.

Game 2 vs Craghead

We got caught sleeping at the beginning, couple of the kids still living in the first game, but we woke up and had an unbelievable fight back and almost tied it up, coming back from 4-1 it ended 5-4 to Craghead.

Game 3 vs Redcar

Redcar were unbeaten coming up against Santos, and quickly took the lead, however, the kids got themselves back in it almost immediately and then the second goal was a thing of beauty, almost all the kids involved as we won 2-1.

Santos topped the group with those results and headed into the final 4 for the Gold Cup alongside Felling Magpies, Billingham and Bedale who all came top of their respective groups.

Semi Final vs Felling Magpies

An early, very unlucky deflected goal gave Felling Magpies the edge in a 1-0 loss, but after the first minute it was all Santos, how the ball didn't go in the back of the net we'll never know, but well done to Felling who then went on to topple Billingham and win the Gold Cup overall 👏

We'd also like to send out a well done to fellow Athletic Team Eindhoven who won their respective trophy today as well 👏💪🖤❤️

We don't do this for league games, but in tournaments we like to mention goal of the tournament, and this time around it has to be George with his excellent long range strike to seal the 2-0 win in the first game following some lovely fluid passing.

Thankyou to Ferryhill for hosting us, a huge pleasure as always 👏👏

Hopefully some confidence driven into the kids as we head back into the spring cup next weekend!

Up the Santos ❤️🖤❤️🖤⚽️⚽️

Match Report ⚽️⚽️

Santos unable to get a result this morning, they played well in parts but once a couple goals went in the kids heads dropped and shoulders slumped, tough watching them like that after such a good training session on Wednesday.

No 1st half 2nd half this week, I don't think it would be beneficial, however, what we can say is the kids, despite being disappointed, picked themselves up and pushed forwards at any given opportunity.

Regardless of results, speaking as a coach (Marc), id like to say I'm proud of all of these kids, each and every one of them, they all bring something different to the team. We aren't Barcelona or Man City, we are Washington Athletic Santos U10's and I think sometimes it's important to remember that, they are still learning, adapting, they make mistakes but they still turn up every week smiling and ready to go again and for that I am grateful...

This week Player of the Match went to Findlay, who got himself into some excellent positions during the game and worked hard up and down the right flank today, well done Findlay.

We have a tournament tomorrow at our friend's Ferryhill, regardless of today's result, the kids are excited, so we go again ❤️🖤❤️🖤 Up the Santos

Match Report ⚽️⚽️

Santos 0 - 7 Durham Wolves

A tough day at the office for Santos, there were some positives to take away however and the scoreline is harsh. Thanks to Durham Wolves, top coach and kids.

1st half Santos matched Wolves stride for stride the first 20 minutes, Santos actually creating more chances, it was 0-0 and a goal line block actually led to a breakaway and goal for Wolves, followed very quickly by a 2nd and 3rd as Santos were shellshocked. Half time couldn't come quick enough.

2nd half unfortunately the team talk went out the window within the first 5 seconds, defense caught napping from kick off led to Wolves player getting on the end of a Santos pass to poke past Oliver.
Heads completely went in the second half, it looked like it got on top of the kids a bit, it's been a while since Santos suffered such a large defeat, these past few months have been unbelievable for the kids. The game ended 7-0.

We were surprised when the fixtures were announced to see Durham Wolves in the spring cup with us, having previously played against them higher up the divisions we've always known them as a top team, so the kids have nothing to be worried about moving forward.

That said, some good individual performances, but Oliver took MOTM today, he kept the score down in that second half with some excellent saves. Big well done Oliver keep your head up. Tough dragging the ball out the back of the net that many times but you kept going.

Big weekend next weekend! We've got our normal Saturday fixture, and we also have the tournament for Sunday at Ferryhill so should be a great weekend! Up the Santos 🖤❤️🖤❤️⚽️⚽️
