24 hours after an excellent performance against CRIS, Ambrit returned to action against Vigna Pia.
A scoreless first period was very even but Vigna Pia started the second half more quickly and went 1-0 ahead.
But captain Vittorio came to the rescue 5' later with a fantastic free-kick that gave the goalkeeper no chance. At this stage, the teams were level but Vigna Pia continued to press and created too many chances for comfort. Ambrit were glad to hear the whistle for the end of the second period.
Nonetheless it was Ambrit who took the lead in period 3; Bertie followed up a knock on from Alberto and scored. But Vigna Pia equalized immediately, taking advantage of Dylan who had swapped into goal but was still putting on his shirt: the referee should really have held up the play.
The last few minutes were tense but the game finished 2-2.
AMBRIT: Leo, Carlo, Bertie, Alberto, Dylan, Cameron, Vittorio, Nicholas
And the situation so far...
After six games, the Ambrit u11 team is definitely improving and has probably not collected as many points as their play has deserved. Despite playing with no dedicated goalkeeper, the side has defended very well. Carlo's experience from last year shows in his confident approach and Leo is developing into a very dependable defender too. Pedro, another valuable addition to the team, can play at the back or further forward and does so with determination and skill. Our captain, Vittorio, is playing further forward this year and he continues to lead by example, always covering every blade of grass on the pitch. Alberto is back again this year and is often our best passer of the ball, while Dylan and Cameron have come into the team and given us new width, pace and an attacking impulse that was sometimes lacking before.
Bertie and Adam share a good first touch and always look for the simple pass and Nicholas is full of energy and running. Jonah is our secret weapon when we need to take an opposing player out of the game (legally!) and Cosimo has impressed with his tigerish play in midfield.
BUT, we still need to improve lots of things, beginning with those tackles... WE NEED TO WIN THEM ALL!
