Match report

Thackley Lightning 0 - 2 Westwood Dolphins
Sunday 15th March 2009

.The Dolphins emerged worthy winners after their skillful performance, accurate passing and great strength on the ball made the difference.

Luke Stoyles and Kyle Fletcher worked together to keep Thackley at bay. James Topham was at his best, turning defence into attack and pulling off a great save to prevent a certain goal. There was much more snap in the dolphins midfield today with Ryan Abbasi on great form. The Dolphins took a well-deserved lead just before half time with hit man James Larvin finding the back of the net again.

In the second half the boys never let up, with Jordan Botwood and Jack Crowe always providing a outlet on the wings. Callum Warne-Cleave showed some great touches and was always looking to strike the ball, but it was James Larvin who got the Dolphins’ second goal of the match to keep their unbeaten run going.

This was by far one of their best performances so far this season - it is clear that they are starting to put into practice what they are learning from training - and it was very difficult to pick a man of the match so, in the end, it was awarded to the whole team.
