Hooe Rovers U13s 3

Tavistock Jets U13s 3

JETS began in encouraging style and were soon in the lead after a long shot from McCall that had the keeper well beaten.

The game was evenly balanced with both sides having opportunities to score and Webber had to be on top of his game in goal. Hooe equalised but Jets responded in style after Kelly had hit the Hooe crossbar.

Smerdon was replaced by Derbyshire after picking up an injury. Following excellent control Coulston fired Jets into the lead from long distance.

Unfortunately a momentary lapse in Jets? defence saw Hooe equalise just before half-time.

Bray and Derbyshire provided solidity at the back as Taylor was brought on as substitute in the second half. Jets were unlucky to go behind after a corner had been punched onto the bar by Webber only to see the ball rebound off a back and into the net.

Jets never gave up with Dobson playing in his accustomed right midfield position causing problems down the right. Tavistock had a narrow escape with the ball hitting both posts before being cleared, yet continued to press their opponents.

Coulston controlled a return ball from Kelly and showing great skill levelled the score with another long-range goal.

Man of the match: Euan McCall. Managers? man of the match: The team.
