Brentwood Sports (Away)

Today saw the Ongar Juniors B team on the road, destination Larchwood Gardens, to face Brentwood Sports B the team that has seven of little Gunny's class mates in. The Ongar team started well with good possession down the right wing, the game evened out and Brentwood had a few breakaway chances with Harry S slotting one past the Ongar keeper. 1-0.
A few minutes later saw a solid shot from Harry P deflect off an Ongar defender making it 2-0. The Ongar team kept their heads up and didn't give in. Owen came on half way through the half and went into the left back position. The Blues had a few breaks but they came to nothing. Half time 2-0.

Second half saw the Blues attacking much better than the first and only the bravery of Harry T in the Sports goal prevented the Blues pulling one back sooner. The game continued on faily evenly, until Lewis and Nari made a good combination with Lewis slotting the ball away, 2-1. Ben the "Cat" in the Ongar goal lived up to his name with some great saves in the second half but could do nothing to stop Brentwood's third which was smashed into the roof of the net by Harry S, 3-1. All in all a very entertaining game enjoyed by a large crowd on a very sunny February morning. A fairly even match but the scoreline wasn't refective of the game, it should have been closer.

Captain:- James
Ongar Man of the Match :- Ben H, never stopped trying till the end and made some great saves.
