St. Edmunds 4-0 Smestow

After two years of losing in the final, our Year 9 Soccer team made it third time lucky by beating Smestow 4-0 last week at Old Wulfrunians FC. This victory meant that the team have remained undefeated for the whole season – winning the cup and league double!

Goals scored by Lewis Hughes, Bartosz Walczak, Finn Mullen and Osiris Jackson but it was a tremendous team performance with Smestow having very few chances.

Both teams started nervously which was understandable but an excellent move between Levi Bernard and Rio Dodd ended with Lewis Hughes lobbing the ball calmly into the goal to make the score 1-0. This settled St. Edmunds and just before half-time Bartosz Walczak doubled the lead from an Osiris Jackson corner.

Smestow had a good spell just after half-time but sweeper Kyrun Chahal kept things tight at the back and after the substitutes were introduced, St. Edmunds finished strongly. Finn Mullen scored with his first touch and Osiris Jackson rounded off the scoring with a nice finish from a fine Jenson Griffiths pass.
