BSYL - Yr 6 - 21st January

This weekend saw the fabulous year 5's ride to the rescue of an under-strength year 6 squad.

The Greens won an end-to-end clash with Brislington JFC, with the result in doubt until the final whistle. Brislington took an early lead when a good passing move was well finished but the the Foxes struck back almost immediately with a flowing break-away goal, expertly finished by Omar. The Foxes extended their lead before half-time through Henry and Joseph. In the second half Brislington came into the game as we tired and created a number of good chances. The Foxes were indebted to their Danny who pulled off a string of good saves, allowing the home team to hold on for a hard fought 3-1 victory.


The Whites played the Buccaneers Reds and an exciting game with chances at both ends saw the Buccaneers come out on top. We started slowly and the Reds created and took two early chances to put them in front. When we began to settle, Sonny was unlucky on at three occasions to hit the post or crossbar. The Reds extended their lead just before half-time when a fine long range shot came down off the bar to be stabbed over the line. The second half saw both teams play good attacking football, forcing both keepers into fine saves. Another Reds' goal, after a fine save from Owen again rebounded kindly for the Reds, took the score to 4-0. The Foxes never gave up and scored two great late goals from Sonny and Raul, with a brilliant header.
