Under 11 – Trisconi Cup Semi Final
Southport FC Juniors 9 Hesketh Colts Red 1
Cup fever hit
Southport FCJ and Hesketh Colts Red with the prize for the winners a
date in the final in April. Southport started the brighter and
forced numerous chances in the early stages but some great defending
by Tim Moore and Dominic Callahan kept Southport at bay. It was a
matter of time before the deadlock was broken and a corner from Sam
Johnson found SFCJ Captain Oliver Cunningham to rifle a left foot
shot high into the net, this was well deserved and Jorge Jones and a
Sam Johnson penalty extended SFCJ's lead. Hesketh Colts made a game
of it and with a bit of luck they could have netted themselves but
Callum Jones the SFCJ keeper produced some fine saves. Anthony Brown
and Tom Rogers were outstanding in midfield for Southport and with
Robson Baldwin and Dan Thompson equally outstanding on the left
flank Hesketh Colts did well to keep them out before the interval.
Southport started the
second half in top gear and the goals came in quick succession with
James Smith, Mat Peterson, Owen Drummond and Ryan Pytel all netting
to put the game beyond Hesketh Colts. Southport kept the ball and
some sleek passing throughout the side produced some fantastic
football but credit to Hesketh Colts they kept going and got the
reward their efforts deserved when Tom Howard latched on to a ball
and ran from the halfway line to slide the ball wide of Callum Jones
and into the net. Southport hit back straight away when Dan Thompson
produced his trade mark goal when he rattled a long range left foot
shot into the net. Robbie Handsford and Will Wilson both had near
misses towards the end of the game but were denied by some great
saves by the Hesketh Colts keeper. The man of the match award goes
to Oliver Cunningham who lead his team by example and was a dominant
force throughout the game and scoring twice.

Skem Rangers 9 Ormskirk WE 0
Skem Rangers
dominated this game from start to finish.
An early goal from Paul Bennett was quickly followed up by a Jordan
Maloney overhead kick.
Soon after Mike Forsyth hit a blast from outside the box to make it
three.
Not to be outdone
Josh Seddon then hit a high ball from half way into the roof of the
net. Just before half time Tom Barlow hit his first to bring the
half time score to 5-0.
In the second period
Dale Slater got on the scoring sheet along with Tom Barlow who
completed his hat trick, one a header the other a squared ball from
James Edgar for Tom to hit in. The last and final goal came from a
corner, which fell to Peter Wylie to knock in and finish the match.
Man of the Match:- Mike Forsyth.
Under 11
Town Green 2 Redgate Green 2
Once again, losing
the advantage of a home fixture because of continuing problems with
Town Green's home pitches, Town Green played Redgate Green at
Redgate's home ground.
Town Green started the better of the two sides, having most of the
possession. Indeed, Anthony Caunce, the Town Green keeper had little
to do for the first 20 minutes or so with most of the play taking
place in the Redgate goalmouth.
Town Green had chance
after chance but some excellent defending and goalkeeping by Redgate
kept TG at bay and TG could not penetrate the barrier of yellow
shirts before them.
Some brilliant runs from Callum Birchall down the wing and Connor
Tierney through the centre created many problems for Redgate, but
they stood strong and denied TG opportunity after opportunity.
A break by Redgate saw their number 17, Dan, score a perfectly timed
goal but Redgate's lead was shortlived when George Newell responded
almost immediately to bring the scoreline back to 1-1.
The second half saw virtually equal possession and a real battle
ensued in midfield. Kieron Turner and Josh Donson worked hard to get
the ball forward but TG again squandered many opportunities.
Eventually, it was Newell again who scored to give TG a 2-1 lead.
Both sides pressed and battled for possession and every player on
the pitch gave 100%.
An equaliser for
Redgate came in the form of a penalty, which was coolly scored by
number 17, Dan, and Dan was unlucky not to score his hattrick when a
perfectly taken shot ricocheted off the post.
It is hard to believe that Redgate Green are not placed higher in
this league. Their defence was superb and TG found it hard to find a
way through at times. Both sides should be commended for their
perseverance, commitment and effort and a draw was, perhaps, a fair
result on the day.
Town Green's Man of the Match was Kieron Turner. He covered every
inch of the pitch, exhibited pace and skill and played some
fantastic balls through to his attackers. His tackles were all timed
to perfection and he played with spirit and determination.
Birkdale United J 7
Hesketh Colts Red 2
Birkdale United J met
Hesketh Colts Red for the third time this season. The game started
steadily, both sides sizing each other up. An initial chance for Dom
Platts of Birkdale went wide, but 10 minutes into the game he scored
the first of the match, putting Birkdale J in the lead.
The next 10 minutes saw Hesketh Colts become more commanding and
pressuring Birkdale J back into their own half but Luke Williams
created a chance for himself and scored a lovely goal giving
Birkdale J a two goal lead at half time.
The second half saw more pressure from Birkdale, Dom Platts ran into
space and scored himself a magnificent 2nd goal. Hesketh Colts saw a
chance to get on the scoresheet just go wide of the post, and then
Liam Jackson of Birkdale scored a 4th for the side.
Hesketh Colts continued to play in a determined manner and put
pressure, in particular, on defenders Sam Howard and Scott Bolton,
but Dom Platts had other ideas and got himself a hat trick with
another well taken goal. He went on to score his fourth goal and the
final goal for Birkdale came from defender Jack Young. The
determination of Hesketh Colts was admirable and they were rewarded
with two late goals.
Under 10
Hesketh Colts 0 Rainford Rangers 3
Rainford Rangers
travelled to Meols Park for this re-arranged fixture. Rainford
started the brighter of the two sides with Jake Arkell probing the
Colts defence with some powerful runs. On 7 minutes the early
pressure paid off when great interplay between the Rangers midfield
trio of Kieran Case, Sean Marsh and George Reid released Jake Arkell
who turned neatly in the Colts area and fired home past the keeper.
Scott Stoneley and Callum Deeming were breaking down the Colts
attacks and sending some excellent through balls to the Mid field
and attack. The Colts keeper was outstanding in keeping the Rainford
Ranger attacks at bay.
Jake Arkell doubled his tally on 12 minutes when George Reid
threaded a superb pass inside to Sean Marsh whose shot was blocked
only for Jake Arkell to volley home the rebound. Colts then had a
good period of possession asking questions of the Rainford defence.
Ryan Jones was equal to the speculative efforts from out side the
area and his long clearances were turning the Colts defence around.
Kieran Case was dominant in the tackle and Sean Marsh was precise in
his passing but it was George Reid who caused the majority of the
problems for the Colts defence.
Danny Glover came on
at half time to assume his customary position in defence and Morgan
Benson took up the strikers role. Hesketh were keen to stay in the
contest and pushed hard to pull a goal back but this in turn left
huge gaps for Rainford to exploit.
It was left to Ryan
Jones to settle the tie when his fierce drive from the edge of the
penalty box nestled into the right hand side of the Colts goals. It
was no more than Ryan Jones deserved as his intelligent play had
created several chances for his team mates.
Under 9
Jaguars White 1 Tarleton 3
Whites started really
well and forced a couple of half chances in the first few minutes.
The passing was good and Tarleton struggled to create many breaks.
When they did Kyle and Zayn kept everything at bay and Cameron
picked up anything loose. Just before half time Whites again missed
chances and looking at the first half it was hard to see how they
could lose.
A goal within 3 mins of the restart by Ben Shenton, controlling and
blasting into the net from outside the box gave the Whites the lead.
This seemed to give Tarleton the wake up call they needed and they
grew stronger, equalising a few minutes later and then within 2
minutes taking the lead after the Whites failed to close the ball
down outside the area. The Whites again missed chances to
equalise and in the final seconds Tarleton broke again and the ball
was dispatched into the bottom corner as the defenders backed off.
Deepdale 4
Southport FC Juniors 0
Deepdale started the
brighter of the two teams forcing A. Thorpe into a great early save,
it wasn't long before the Juniors found their form with some nice
passing between L. Harwood, C. Harper and M. Howard, the ball was
crossed to C. Rimmer to make it 1-0.
After a period of
pressure by the Juniors L.Harwood finished very well to make 2-0
then shortly after he knocked in another superb goal.
The second half started with the Juniors applying a lot of pressure
adding a further goal when M. Howard's beautiful chip over the
keeper stole the show after a great through ball delivered by J
McCormack.
