A Winning Start for Ambrit

Ambrit's u14 team got off to a great start to the new season today, winning the year's first RISA tournament against some strong opposition.
A packed Ambrit stadium saw Lapo put the team 1-0 up against Castelli; Manfredi added two more goals, one a very sweet header off a Peter corner. The team tired a little towards the end, allowing Castelli to get back to 3-2, but time ran out and the three points were collected.

Touch, vision, and an eye for goal!

 The second game was against St George's. Pietro started and showed everyone why he was the u11 team's top scorer last year, tucking away three chances to put Ambrit 3-1 ahead after 10 minutes.
Manfredi then took over goal-scoring duries and matched Pietro's haul. Ambrit now had 6 points out of 6 and needed only a draw against New School to proceed to the final.

Impressive debut in the Middle School team

A 4-2 victory, with goals from Pietro, Manfredi and Lapo (2) made sure of qualification.
In the final, Pietro again led the attack and he scored all three goals in a 3-1 victory.
Lots of great performances today.
Max was solid in goal and Giuseppe, Peter and Elias were largely impeccable in defence. Lapo played his best ever football in an Ambrit shirt. Gavyn protected the defence. Good contributions from Giacomo, Theo, Jerry and Giorgio.
TEAM: Max; Giuseppe (capt), Peter, Elias; Lapo, Pietro, Gavyn; Manfredi; Joel, Giacomo, Jerry, Theo, Giorgio.
