Match Report

East Antrim Youth League Under 11's
Ridgeway Rovers 11 Comber Rec 1

Billy Neill
08 September 2006

 

The season began with a tough away match at Billy Neill, against Ridgeway Rovers.


Although without two of our strongest players who had early season commitments Comber started the game very positively. We soon fell behind when the Rovers speedy left winger caused problems, getting behind our defense before crossing to his centre forward who scored. Two more goals followed before a spectulative shot from Combers Millar deceived the Rovers goalkeeper who spilled the ball into the net.

Ridgeway played some great football, and scored a further three goals before half-time. Comber heads perhaps dropped, and even with three substitutions the rout continued in the second half with Ridgeway scoring a further five goals without reply.

All in all, a disappointing scoreline for Comber, but plenty of hope for the rest of the season.
