Mid Cheshire Youth League, Amber Division.

Under 8s - Frodsham 3 – Vale Juniors Foxes 0.

The Foxes recent run came to an end against a strong Frodsham outfit.

The match started in the worst possible way when a good challenge from Jackson saw the ball fall kindly to Frodsham who scored.

The boys responded well and Tatters crossed a fine ball that was inches behind Turner.

Robertson intercepted the ball well and sprung a Vale attack that saw Jackson play a fine ball that Turner hit goalbound, only for the goalie to make a fine save.

Adlington made a fine save as the match went end to end.

Wright hit a shot from the edge of the area that flew over the bar, and the Frodsham keeper made a great double save from Turner and then Jackson from the rebound.

Adlington made a super save from a free kick.

The start of the second half saw Beech play a through ball to Turner whose shot was inches wide.

Needham made a strong tackle and released the ball to Taters who shot wide.

Vale were really pushing for an equaliser and Manley won the ball before going on a determined run that ended with a shot that went wide.

A lapse in concentration from the lads saw Frodsham score two quick goals to kill off the match as a contest, but the lads continued to try to score a conciliation goal.

Robertson hit a long range effort that was well saved.
