Year 8 - BSYL, Foxes 6 - 0 Stoke Lane, 01/02

An eye catching performance from the Foxes saw them pull away from Stoke Lane in the battle for third place. In blustery conditions on the 3G at RGS, Stoke Lane had the wind at their backs and the first 20 minutes was an even, if slightly helter-skelter affair, before Sam finished after a powerful run and intelligent pass from the very impressive Omar. This settled the home side and a second followed when Omar finished coolly. On the stroke of half time great work by Jack set up the tireless Owen, again released from goal by Archie's availability, who smashed the ball into the net form the edge of the area. Early in the second half Raul, taking advantage of the strong wind, hit a wonderful and unstoppable shot into the top corner to put the result beyond any doubt. Stoke Lane continued to compete but the Foxes maintained a lovely rhythm with some great passing football and could have added more than a second from Omar and a great team goal finished by Ollie C. A very good team performance, with the Foxes first clean sheet of the season being as rewarding as the goals. Man of the match for the Foxes was Omar.
