U9's Whites 4-1 Failsworth West Lions Sat 1st Oct

Stalybridge Celtic whites 4-1 Failsworth West Lions By Phil Read.

The Whites continues their unbeaten start to season with a hard fought win over the Lions.

The game started off a little scrappy and the whites soon found themselves one nil down before a goal from Shay brought them level along with signs of them settling down into their flowing football. The match continued end to end and it took a fine save from Josh to keep the scores level.

Soon after the Whites broke down the left and Jack crossed to find Shay making a run to the near post with the ball finding the net following a deflection off the defender. 2-1 at half time.

In the second half the Whites got off to a good start and settled in to playing some better flowing football with Alex and Callum bossing the midfield, Rhys making some good runs down the wing. Midway through the half Callum showed some skills to lose his marker and play Shay in for the Whites third goal. 

The Whites finally put the game to bed with another telling ball from Callum to Rhys whose strike hit the post but Shay was able to pick up the rebound to finish. The game ended 4:1.
