MEADOWMILL MAGIC!

Pencaitland Youth Blue 2 - 10 MYS Black Stripes (8Nov08)

With a waterlogged pitch at Pencaitland, the venue for this match was changed to the astroturf pitch at Meadowmill Sports Centre. Given that the squad trains there every Monday night at the moment, it was almost like a home match and this showed in the kids' performance as they played with great confidence.

Harvey opened the scoring on the day, and was followed by Josh. Harvey then scored another three before Josh scored his second of the match.

Ross proved to be very adaptable and played in a few positions (including a spell in goals) on the day, which was especially useful as the Youngstars only had seven players available for the game. Once again, Sam's tackling was brilliant and Mark had his usual great display in defence - and he even hit Pencaitland's post with a great effort at goal.

Harvey managed to score his fourth goal, and Josh completed his own hat-trick before the game ended. Lewis and Calum also got on the score sheet (as usual), and with Pencaitland scoring a couple of goals too there was plenty of excitement for the supporters on the sidelines.

A comfortable day in the end for the Youngstars, and they did especially well given the lack of substitutes available.

Teamsheet: Ross, Mark, Sam, Josh, Lewis, Harvey, Calum

Goal scorers: Harvey (5), Josh (3), Lewis, Calum
