Match report

Firstly if there was ever a miss-match and reason for having 2 leagues next season this was it. Caple arrived at the re-arranged time and need to wait for the full Celtic team to arrive. A big thanks must go out to the Celtic players, coaches and parents for making the effort to get this match played on what was probably the warmest day of the year so far.
It was Celtic who caught the Caple defence cold and Tommy was called into action almost from the kick off. This was nearly all he had to do all game! The game was effectively over within the first 10 minutes. Both Eidan and Blair had good attempts on goal but were either wide or the keeper made good saves.
The break through occurred soon after, Nathan crossed for Blair to volley in from the penalty spot. Connor then played in Nathan who this time crossed to Rhys to control and score. Nathan then had his 3rd assist and set up Eidan to score. 3 – O Caple.
Blair got his 4th, good pressure and a pass under the keeper. Andy Hassan then made a great pass from right mid, Blair had timed his run and slotted under the keeper, 5 nil. Rhys then had a good run down the left, drove into the box and passed to Blair to tap in. Blair’s 5th goal came from a run by Nathan, hi shot was saved by the keeper but Blair was on hand to back heel the ball into the net. 7 – 0.
Andy Hassan played over a great corner to Connor stood all alone to head over the keeper for his 1st Caple goal.
Half time 8 – 0
Subs: Jack/Aidan/Chris on – Lewis F/Rhys/Blair off.
The 2nd half was as one sided as the 1st. Lewis F played a ball to Nathan who controlled and beat the keeper. Aidan played in Chis who controlled and scored. Eidan was put through by Aidan&#59; he beat the keeper at his near post. 11 – 0.
Chris then scored the goal of the game, controlled the ball and lobbed the keeper from 30 yards out. Eidan then had a run, the keeper could only parry his shot and Chris tapped in. Andy Larkin played in Nathan, his shot was again parried by the keeper and again Chris was on hand to tap in. Lewis F had a mazy run down the left, fed to Chris who picked his spot to score again. Chris then pressurised the Celtic defence, won the ball and again slotted past the keeper. Chris took a throw in to Jack his ball found Andy Hassan in space and he drove a shot past the keeper for 17 – 0. Connor took a long throw in and the ball bounced up onto a Celtic player’s hand. Tommy was called up from the back and after getting his breath back stepped up to beat the keeper. 18 – 0. Nathan controlled the ball on the edge of the box, turned and volleyed for the 19th. As much a rarity as Tommy scoring Eidan then scored with his right foot.
The last goal was a pass from Nathan to Chris to score his 7th of the afternoon.
All in all a good workout, some players in different positions and in pretty warm conditions.
