Chalfont St Peter Colts (25/02/2001)
2000 - 2001 Season, Hithercroft Under 14s



The weather was very cold and the pitch was covered in fine and shallow snow.

Jason Guy opened the scoring shortly after the start for Hithercroft. Then, ten minutes later Jerome Warren passed to Dewayne Dublin who lobbed the ball over the Chalfont keeper for Hithercroft’s second. Chalfont St Peter were constantly pushing up to the halfway line and catching the visitors off-side. However, after twenty minutes Jason scored again, putting the ball just wide of the Chalfont ‘keeper. Three minutes later, from a Hithercroft goal kick, Jason took the ball from the halfway line and ran downfield and scored from a very tight angle. Then Paul Yandell sent the ball across the face of the Chalfont goal for Jerome to slot it through the defenders and into the net. Three minutes later Dewayne increased Hithercroft’s lead, making the half-time score-line 6-0 to the visitors.

Three minutes after the restart, Shane Globe added another for Hithercroft and then Dewayne, standing with his left side towards goal, volleyed Jerome’s cross using the outside of his left foot into the goal. Two minutes later Shane scored again and then Jason started a run from his own half, rounded the Chalfont keeper and scored his fourth of the day. Dewayne then also went on a run and lifted the ball over the advancing keeper for Hithercroft’s 11th goal. After 16 minutes of the second half Jason scored again, followed by Paul repeating his first half cross for Jerome to score again. Paul managed to get the ball into the opponent’s net but was ruled off-side. Not to be outdone by Jason, Dewayne scored his fifth goal after 30 minutes of the half. Just before the final whistle Jerome took the ball past the Chalfont defenders and their keeper came out to meet him. Jerome hit the ball straight at him, the goalie only being able to block the shot. Jerome took the ricochet and hit the ball straight at him again! The final score-line was 14-0 to Hithercroft with Dewayne and Jason getting five each and Jerome and Shane scoring two each.

Richard Sunderland was awarded Hithercroft’s ‘Man of the Match’ for his very good defensive work. Chalfont St Peter Colts never gave up and showed some good ball control and skills. We wish them all the best for the remainder of the season.
