BOYS SOCCER: Teachers 6-1 Grade 7

Despite a spectacular opening goal from Antoine, Grade 7 finally succumbed to the teachers in the third 'tempo' when the scoreline shot up from 1-1 to 6-1.

Antoine had woken up the teachers in the first 'tempo' when he drifted wide to the left and unleashed an unstoppable shot past Mr Corcoran. Mr Antonio soon equalised though when he cut the ball in at the near post following a mazy dribble past three defenders.

The scoreline remained unchanged then for 15 minutes, thanks largely to a string of fantastic saves from Player of the Match Danilo Cressman.

But then Mr Guarnieri's goal opened the floodgates, Mr Calento completed his hat-trick, Mr Midgley made it 5-1 and Mr Hough added a sixth.

BOYS SOCCER: Deutsche Schule 6-4 Ambrit

Despite a late goal from Luca, Ambrit ran out of time and couldn't catch their opponents having been down 3-2 at half-time.
Ambrit had gone ahead early on with Francesco Sciotti's opening goal following a neat one-two with Oliver. But the Germans countered and forced a good save from Ale. They then equalised with an unchallenged header and went ahead when Ambrit failed to close down a shooting situation in time. Ale made another good save then and Ambrit pulled it back to 2-2 when Francesco G turned in a quick Sciotti corner but, minutes later, a loose pass from Ale let the home side in for a third goal.
Francesco G then earned and wasted a penalty and Ambrit were a goal down at half time.
Sciotti equalised early in the second half following a long run past three opponents and a lovely left-foot shot. But an own-goal by Ludo a few minutes later put the Germans back in the driving seat and Ambrit's marking became slack. DSR took advantage and went 6-3 up. Ambrit's last ray of hope came from Luca when he scored a rare but valuable goal.

Ambrit Boys 7 - 2 Vigna Pia

Some good saves early on from Ale in goal gave Ambrit the chance to find their feet and stroll eventually to a nonchalent win over neighbours Vigna Pia.

Francrsco Sciotti scored two almost identical goals following through passes from Oliver and Francesco Gallo added a third before half time, the assist coming from Oliver again.

Sciotti made it 4-0 before Vigna Pia made a tentative try to get back into the game with two quick goals, but Ambrit moved up a gear and scored three more before the end; Oliver (2) Ludo added their names to the scoresheet.

Overall Ambrit's display was competent but they will need some stiffer challenges if they are to prepare adequately for next May's tournament in Garda.
