DONCASTER ROVERS U9’s
‘ The Blues Twos’
Saturday 2 June (Home)
v. Bulleen
With a full squad to choose from, we entered the game full of confidence against a Bulleen side unbeaten in their 2 years playing together.
A battling first half display encouraged the boys that they had Bulleen knowing they had a battle on their hands.
A combination of strong tackling and some neat passing was very encouraging. A great chance for Alex was only narrowly just off target, and the half-time score was locked at 0 – 0.
A steady flow of substitutions gave all the boys an opportunity to find their feet and fulfill different roles.
However, as the game wore on, Bulleen grabbed the initiative, scoring 2 quick goals. This encouraged the B2s to fight back, and Ari slotted home a neat finish that his hard work and effort deserved. We couldn’t find an equaliser, and lost 2 – 1.
Another encouraging performance, and hopefully we can work on some of our techniques and positional awareness in training over the coming weeks.
Next Saturday, away at Riversdale, 11am kick-off, at Hartwell Reserve, Melway Ref 60 E6.
