Epsom & Ewell Premier Division – League Match 02/10/2011

Epsom & Ewell Colts A U12s 3 Redhill Town U12s 0

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Despite a vastly improved performance, lady luck refused to shine on Redhill in a game they didn’t deserve to lose.

Redhill were a match for Epsom from the off, and the first half saw numerous chances created, but not taken, by both sides until Epsom took the lead in the 22^nd minute. Barely a minute after the restart, Epsom extended their lead when their striker managed to beat the offside trap.

The second half saw some excellent football from Redhill. While the defence held firm, Redhill really took the game to Epsom and they were unfortunate not to take any of the chances they created.

In the 49^th minute, a needless Redhill hand-ball led to an Epsom free-kick just outside the box. The initial shot was blocked, but Epsom reacted quickest to the rebound and the second attempt was judged to have crossed the line.

Redhill can take heart from this improved performance, and it can only be a matter of time until that elusive first win!

Redhill U12s are still looking for more players and anyone interested should contact manager Anthony Reynolds on 01737 212103 or 07825 442317 for more information.
