U14: Mavericks 1 AFC Beeches 0

A fantastic all round team performance saw the Mavericks take all three points from this tough encounter. A strong wind made it difficult for both teams but the Mavericks created a number of chances in the first half with Jake Blackburn, Jamie Sutton and Liam Kenny all coming close. Both defences though were on top for most of the game with Jamie Shirtliff, Thomas Gibson, Scott Briscoe and Nathan Kay playing excellently throughout the game.

The second half saw Beeches make use of the wind but the Mavericks midfield of Rikki Paylor, Joe Powell and man of the match Cristo Cicero held firm and gave Beeches little chance. Then in the last minute of the game Jamie Sutton played Jake Blackburn through on goal who battled with the defender to fire his shot past the helpless keeper to give the Mavericks all three points.
