Stratton Youth round-up

FC Abbey Meads U13s 3 Stratton Youth U13s 3

STRATTON U13s rallied from two goals down to force a 3-3 draw at Abbey Meads.

Once again they conceded two goals in the first 10 minutes through some poor defending, but the game was end to end from that point.

Charlie Love pulled a goal back 10 minutes before half-time and Stratton started the second period looking the better side, although they wasted chances through poor passing and shooting.

Love did eventually slot the second Stratton goal but Abbey Meads added a third from a counter attack to give them the advantage back.

Stratton kept going despite tiring legs and were rewarded when Harvey Biggs tapped in from close range to make it 3-3.

Stratton MoM: Barney Kimber.

Due to the continuing bad weather this was the only youth game to be played by the club, and the U7s, who were away at Purton, were the only team to get a game in the mini section.
