U14: Mavericks 1 Ardsley Athletic 4

The Mavericks started well after a Rikki Paylor free kick was almost converted by a header from Cristo Cicero but Niall Pattison-Linighan drove home the rebound. Ardsley responded with a wonder strike but the game was tight with both defences on top. Man of the match Thomas Gibson helped keep Ardsley at bay and if chances had been taken the Mavericks could have been in the lead. Before half time Ardsley grabbed a second to give them the lead.

The Mavericks pushed for the equaliser in the second half but were unable to convert chances into goals. Ardsley finished the game stronger and left with all three points from this tough battle.
