ISFA National Trophy 1st Round

Latymer Upper School 1 Reading Blue Coat 1st XI 6

Goalscorers: Ryan A (2), James DD, Will T, Charlie A, Tom E

POTM: Alfie A

The best performance of the season by a long way. A depleted Blue Coat team, missing 6 1st XI regulars, put Latymer to the sword in style in the London gloom outside Wormwood Scrubbs prison. Rugby loanee Charlie Allnut got things started with a 25 yard effort, and then 'new signing' Tom Ellington got on the end of a brilliant move down the left to convert number 2. Ryan Okemwa's solo breakaway was reward for an excellent 1st half performance. The platform for victory was the defensive compactness of the team and the non-stop running of the likes of Henry Johnson, Charlie and Player of the Match Alfie Agar. Ryan added a fourth before Latymer scored an excellent goal, but any chance of a comeback by the home team was snuffed out by James D-Davies' excellent volley before Will Tyler grabbed the fifth. All player deserve credit for such a fantastic performance.
