Tempest Blues 2-3 Little Oakley Blues
It was a game of two very different halves as Oakley took the points at Tempest’s Wivenhoe ground on Sunday.

 Both teams played very cagey football in the first half, with both defences performing admirably; countering each other out. With the score 0-0 at half time; a change in tactics saw both teams playing a far more open game in the second half. Both midfields were gaining more space to play into. Oakley were the first to utilise this space, with the impressive Franky Selwyn breaking on the left and setting up Brandon Manning for a clinical finish; scoring on his debut for Oakley. As Tempest pushed forward for the equaliser, Oakley were given more opportunities to break, and Selwyn capitalised again, this time setting up Tyler Sullivan for his second goal of the season. Tempest scored almost immediately after the restart to half the deficit.

 As Tempest continued to push forward, searching for the ever-elusive equaliser, Selwyn, once again appeared, this time, creating his own chance, which he coolly finished. This, however, did not kill the game off, as Tempest redoubled their efforts and with two minutes to go on the clock, they were given their reward with a second goal. The Home Team continued to push forward, but brave defending from Nathan Southgate and Adam Brown at the back for Oakley kept the Tempest at bay. The score finishing- Tempest 2, Little Oakley 3. A hard fought win.

 Man of the match- Nathan Southgate

 Little Oakley Team-

 Callum Mallet (GK), Nathan Southgate, Adam Brown (capt), Tyler Sullivan, Franky Selwyn, Jack Murray, Brandon Manning, Matthew Smith, Liam Clackett.

 

Cornard Dynamos Blues 1 Brooklands Blues 2
Following Brooklands under 10's Blues 1-1 draw against Gt Bradfords, The boys needed to step their game up against Cornard. With this in mind the  whole team seemed asleep and allowed a goal to be conceded just minutes from kick off.
Josh Moore saved a penalty for Brooklands after a hand ball. Brooklands continued to be quite and Josh was showing impressive form in goal. Ethan Ward's control of the ball was still not enough to make the break Brooklands needed. After a earlier injury, defender Jordan Barnett went down and had to leave the pitch, Adam Mayes steped in and defended well, passing balls up to the front, again shots at goal were saved.
Gt Cornard kept picking away and poor clearing saw Josh Moore making safe again.
Tim Perry's collection of a lose ball gave Brooklands new hope but was saved; Tim saw his next attempt at goal clear the bar. A goal kick by Gt Cornard found Murray Lane who passed to Ethan who's Shot found the keepers arms.
After half time team talk, Brooklands saw another of Tim's goals intercepted, then the break Brooklands were waiting for, a pass by Murray allowed Ethan to calmly place the ball in the back of the net. This started an avalanche of shots from the Brooklands. great determination throughout out the game by Charlie Lindoe paid off and after great footwork and skill and when Charlie's pass found Ethan he replied with his second goal of the game. Murray's solo run was deflected, Tim's corner seen out and Jordan Hardy's Volley missed by Inches.
A great game that saw the ball at both ends, but the Brooklands Boys team work proved to much for Great Cornard and the game ended 1-2 Brooklands under 10's Blues.

Clacton utd Pumas  7 Colchester Athletic  2

Clacton’s u13's pumas followed on from last weeks 11-0 victory against Great Bradfords with another fine display.  Striker Ben Austin put utd 1-0 up after only 6mins, Clacton dominated the first half and soon after Austin added his and Clacton’s 2nd, fellow striker Harry Johnson made it 3-0 at the break.  Clacton made several changes for the second half and within minutes of the re-start went 4-0 up through Johnson.  Then after some neat passing down Clacton’s left midfielder Nicky Poole curled in a 25yrd effort for 5-0.  Cruising to victory a mistake at the back let Athletic in for 5-1.  Johnson then completed his hat-trick, and new signing Jason Tilbury got Clacton’s 7th.  Athletic did manage a consolation near the end, but Clacton Utd Pumas ran out worthy winners.  m-o-m  went to winger Chad Russell.

Lexden Saints Blues 6 Cornard Dynamos 0

The first home game of the season was played on a hard pitch on grass that wouldn’t have been out of place on the Savannah, although the pitch was flat and played true.

  Having started the season well last week with an away win at Lawford, Lexden were looking to consolidate that win with another three points, which duly came with a pretty relaxed win after a hectic start.

  Cornard started by making it difficult for Lexden to settle but they offered little going forward.  It was all hustle and bustle from both sides as they tried to get to grip with the conditions and get into some sort of rhythm.

  There were not many moves of note in the first twenty minutes, but after seventeen minutes Harry Webb, Luc Williams and Josh Harrsion combined well down the left.  Harrison took the ball past the defence and from a very acute angle cannoned the bar but the ball dropped down and away to safety.

  Ed Field entered the fray after eighteen minutes and started to pull the strings with passes to the flanks and feet.

Then Harrison was put through but the keeper saved and the follow up from Reid was scrambled away by the defender.  The flanks started to get going and after thirty five minutes Lewis Bailey went on a mazy run and cutting in from the right to beat a number of players, he slipped the ball to Harrison on the edge in front of goal.  He in turn moved the ball out of his feet and clipped a curling shot past the despairing dive of the keeper into the top right hand corner; 1-0.

  In the thirty sixth minute Lewis Axell, Leo Reid and Alex Rutter combined nicely down the right and Rutter flashed a cross-shot from the right of the box but it came to nothing although hinted at the efforts to come.

  It was soon 2-0 when Axell’s cross from the right found its way through to Luc Williams on the edge of the box on the left and his clipped shot arced over the keeper into the top of the net to the keeper’s right. 

  Half time came and Lexden made two changes with Deasko Garner and Callum McLean coming on for Reid and Rutter and within three minutes of the off Gallifant made a good save when Cornard were through on the edge of the box.

  It became 3-0 in the fifty third minute when Ed Field put Lewis Axell in and the defender half cleared his shot only for it to bounce to Garner who smashed it home across into the far post for his first in the game.

  After the fifty sixth the ball was moved in a one-two between McLean and Phillips and found its way to Harrison but his shot was easily cleared this time.  Cornard were starting to find the pressure telling and were hanging on as the game proceeded.

With more good moves edging into the game Lexden took it to 4-0 when Axell was put in by Bailey and he peeled back to the near post and finished nicely for his first goal of the season.

  Williams was making penetrating runs down the right combining well with Bailey and on one foray he went past the defender and crossed to the far post where Garner rose but was denied by the Cornard player on the line.

  After sixty five minutes it was 5-0.  Taking the ball off Elliot Lamb, Ed Field turned and tipped the ball over the advancing midfield as they approached to close him down.  With one bounce he unleashed an unstoppable half-volley like a bullet down to the keeper’s right, who could do nothing but watch it nestle in the back of the net.

  It soon became 6-0 when Lewis Axell crossed from the right and the defence failed to deal with it correctly allowing Garner to take his second of the game.

  Lexden were comfortable winners and are looking good with strength in depth all round.

FC Clacton 0 – 4 Little Oakley Reds
Oakley got off to the perfect start, when Harry Bradley found himself free on the edge of the box, and with a left foot shot across the keeper which went in off the far post. Oakley comfortably held on to the lead against the strong  wind, with the back four of Kite, Goldsmith, Warren and Lammas holding and  keeper summers clearing up the loose balls. Halftime 0-1. The second half was all Oakley with the wind behind them, Clacton battled to keep them out but Oakley got their second through Rob Young heading in from a Goldsmith long throw. Oakley’s third was an own goal after Freke put pressure on the defender. Sam Warren scored Oakley’s fourth heading in a Routledge corner. Oakley were defiantly stronger this week with Collins bolstering up the mid field and Sturch also played his part coming on as sub. The only player probably coming off disappointed was Eldridge who was unlucky not to score.Man of the match was Harry Bradley.

Little Oakley 2 Boxford Rovers 0

With a full nearly a full squad to select from, Dave Burkett quite rightly chose the same 11 as last week. Both teams struggled to use the large pitch at Oakley and found themselves competing in all the wrong areas through the middle, Oakley took the lead mid way through the 1st half through the retuning striker Jack Burkeet back after a 8 month lay off recovering from broken right tib and fib leg breaks.

Oakley were in complete control of the game, but to the credit the new look Boxfoord team never gave up and continued to play  good passing football, Oakley extended there lead near the end after new signing Sean Mathurin scored with his very 1st touch after coming on as a second half substitute.

Wivenhoe 1 Halstead 2
CUNTLIFFE'S CALM WINNER
Halstead travelled to play Wivenhoe on a hard and windy pitch on Sunday afternoon, the game started as a scrappy affair with Halstead and Wivenhoe both giving the ball away as much as each other.
The breakthrough came from some sloppy defending from the Halstead outfit that led to a Wivenhoe forward stroking home a well-taken shot to give Wivenhoe the lead. Halstead slowly began to create chances and momentum, James Murray often at the heart of the attacks with his skills on the ball. Jamie Arron playing in Centre Midfield for Halstead had a good debut.
Halstead began to play like the side that won 8-0 the previous week and soon equalised. Josh Preston gathered the ball on the edge of the 18 yard box,
flicked it over a defender wrong footing 3 other defenders to volley home with pure class to make it 1-1. Seconds after the restart the ref blew for Half time so the goal was right on the half time mark. Half time 1-1
Halstead came out in the second half much more confident than the first half, and with only 11 players (most out through injury or away) their was no substitutions or tactical changes. Lewis Cuntliffe played very well in the centre of defence and made some very important challenges, he also won every ball in the air.
Wivenhoe battled to get forward and James Butcher (Halstead's keeper) was forced to make some important saves. Butcher came out on a number of occasions to stop on coming strikers from getting shots in.
Shaun Evans- Spud was inspirational at the back for Halstead, a great acquisition to the squad that now looks like they have settled down with a
squad of 15-16 players.
Halstead took the lead after a tactical decision with Greg Charlton taking a long throw in saw it land on the head of a high flying Lewis Cuntliffe who headed into the bottom left corner to make it 2-1 with about 20 minutes to go.
Halstead began to slow down after taking the lead and Wivenhoe almost scored on a number of occasions, but Halstead held out till the final whistle and have now won their first 2 games of the season collecting 10 goals and 6 points only letting in 2 goals.
