Match Report by Simon Fletcher

Worcester City Youth Colts U9s team battled to take an exciting draw in their first away game of the season when they visited the Droitwich Spa Crusaders U9s team at St Peters Field, Droitwich on Saturday 14th September 2019.

Prior to the match, Manager Steve Maitland and Captain Tom gave inspiring speeches to the rest of the team.

First Half
City started the game well and put Droitwich under early pressure with most of the early chances going the way of City through Toby, Ethan and Olly. However, it was Droitwich who opened the scoring mid-way through the first half.

It didn’t take City long to draw level after another one of those early chances was put away after a good run from Ethan (that was Ethan’s second goal of the season after netting in last week’s match).

The teams went into the half time break level pegging.

Second Half
The second half didn’t produce any further goals but this didn’t mean it was any less exciting than the first, as there were chances galore for both teams. It was only through some great defending from Theo, Max & Joel and goal keeping from Tom that meant it remained level to the end. This was in spite of some real talent going forward from Thomas, Nathan (making his debut) & Ethan and a great team performance from all of the boys.

The City boys worked hard for the team and thoroughly deserved the praise they got after the match from the Manager, families and friends.

Well played Droitwich and good luck for the rest of the season. The match was watched by a few dozen respectful spectators who enjoyed an exciting game of football. After his great performance in the middle of the park and during training last week, Ethan was awarded the Captain’s armband for next week’s match. Thanks to all the City parents for their support on match day.
