U13s 2 - 4 Castleford Town Sherburn U13s took a break from their challenge for the league title to visit high flying Premier division team Castleford town in the last 8 of the Invitation Cup. The home team started the strongest, working Sherburn all over the pitch but the away side's back four were solid against all attacks. Declan Lewis dominated the line and had the best half so far this season, with Newbon partnering him well. Carr and Macca Hardcastle found plenty of joy down the right wing and it was Sherburn who broke the deadlock after standing tall against the premier side. Carr broke down the wing and his delivery found Thomson at the back post for a tap in. Five minutes later and Macca Hardcastle's penetrating run ended in a penalty after he was dragged down. Carr stepped up but shot straight at the home keeper. Castleford then took the game again to Sherburn, Harrison pulled off three good saves, notably one excellent stop when he tipped over a long range effort as the home spectators were already celebrating an equaliser. At half time Sherburn were in the lead, with the away side working exceptionally hard to compete at a higher standard. The second half was dominated by the Premier team who had undoubtedly been given a talking to. For twenty minutes Sherburn continued to battle without creating any chances, Macca and Kurt Hardcastle standing out as the most hardworking pair on the pitch. Castleford town were quickly awarded a penalty from a handball but the spot kick was blasted over. The premier team's pressure soon took its toll however, and some good play ended with an equaliser. Sherburn responded quickly, Carr putting a long ball through for Macca Hardcastle who bravely threw himself at the ball with the keeper challenging; the keeper blocked the headed effort and Carr put the follow up wide with Sherburn's captain a heap in the box. It was to be Sherburn's final effort on goal, unable to maintain their level of play. Three quick goals followed for Castleford Town, the final being an unstoppable volley from outside the box, but Sherburn rallied again and Carr finally netted with a left footed lob from outside the area. Every player should be proud of their performance and showed that the team can compete at a much higher level, with the home manager commenting that Sherburn are a better side than some of the other teams in the Premier Division. The U13s now need to take this great performance into the second half of the season and earn promotion into the next tier of the Charles Rice League. MOM went to Macca Hardcastle, who gave a fantastic example of how to captain a team and lead by example. |

U13s 8 - 3 Next Generation U13s The U13s progressed to the quarter finals of the Invitation Cup with a nervy win against Next Generation. Macca Hardcastle and Domonic Ballance bagged four goals each to seal the win. Sherburn cruised throughout, but towards the end of the second half the home side found a reserve of energy and took the game to Sherburn, forcing Harrison into a tremendous save before scoring three goals in quick succession. Newbon and Lewis made the victory safe with some stout defending, and Newbon's performance throughout earned him MOM along with Ballance. |
