⚽💙 MATCH DAY REPORT 💙⚽
Middleton Rangers U11s Hurricanes 🆚 Riverside Juniors U11s Reds
Another great effort from our Middleton Rangers Hurricanes boys! 💪⚽
Our defence worked incredibly hard today, putting in some excellent tackles and doing a brilliant job at the back. 🛡️👏 Our goalkeeper was absolutely amazing, pulling off some fantastic saves to keep us in the game! 🧤🔥
In midfield, we saw some excellent passing and great teamwork, helping us move the ball forward and create opportunities. Our strikers battled hard throughout, never giving up and continuing to fight for every ball. 💙💪
There was plenty of determination, teamwork and effort on show from the boys, and they should all be proud of themselves for giving it their all! 👏⚽
🏆 PLAYER AWARDS 🏆
👏 Parents’ Player of the Match: Ben — well done, Ben! 💙
⭐ Coaches’ Player of the Match: Will — fantastic effort, Will! 👏
A massive well done to both award winners, and a big shout-out to all the boys for their hard work and commitment! Keep going, Hurricanes! 🌪️💙
UP THE HURRICANES! 🌪️⚽💙
The u10s Spitfires were away to Marton in the cup today.
Brand new socks all round for the lads, the previous one were almost as tired looking as the coaches 👀
Fair play to Marton, they were relentless in their play and very deliberate in possession of the ball. Strong team and difficult to play against. Great test for the lads.
We did well in periods, created some good chances, worked hard in defence and were unlucky with some of the decisions. As always the boys battled throughout, never gave up and stuck together.
Most importantly, they looked great in their new socks 🟧 🧦 👌👀
Players of the match today
Coaches - Henry 🏆
Battled away in defence, looked strong throughout and had a positive spell at CF too
Parents - Stevey 🏆
Another great defensive performance and showed grit and physicality. Never gave up
Opposition - Flynn 🏆
Was busy at GK today, made some excellent saves, came off his line well and handled the ball confidently
Well done all, roll on next week 💪🍊⚽
⚽️Billingham Synthonia v Middleton Rangers U8s Mosquitoes ⚽️
Today saw use travel to Billingham to take on Synthonia Whites. The Mossies played really well and scored some good goals. The team played some great football today. Credit to Billingham Synthonia who never gave up and got some good goals as well. Player of the match went to the whole team today. Excellent effort in cup competition!
U8 Spitfires vs Whitby Fishermens Athletic U8
Great match today. Proud of all the lads. They played brilliantly, the best I’ve seen them play, especially with a reduced squad. They held their shape well and looked threatening on the ball. The first 10 minutes was great to watch with some good chances. Unfortunately the boys heads dropped after a few good goals from the opposition, but they did well to see out the half. They got their momentum back in the second half and kept it close with a fantastic performance from Ayan in goal. Some excellent passing with runs down the wing and dangerous balls into the box.
The boys are improving every week.
Well done Ted for winning parents POTM. He had a huge job today, on his own at the back. I lost count of all the tackles and clearances. 💪
Well done Ernst for coaches POTM. Moved well in midfield. Calm on the ball and had a good few chances on goal.
UTS!
MRFC U10 Hurricanes vs Stockton Reds U10
Tough game in the cup today for the Hurricanes against a good Stockton team.
The boys worked hard for the full match, not letting their heads drop after a difficult first half.
A good opportunity to pick up some areas for improvement we can apply to the rest of the season.
⚽️ Reggie
🏆 Coaches' player: Reggie
Epitomised the spirit shown in the game today. Relentless in his pressing, showing real persistence, capping off his performance with a really well taken goal.
🥇 Parents' player: Zach
Combative in the middle of the pitch, battling for every loose ball and never stopping in his efforts to win it back for the team.
⚽️ U12 Middleton Rangers – Cup Match 🏆
What a game for the lads today against Eaglescliffe in the cup. It was a tough, competitive game from the first whistle, with both teams battling hard for every ball and neither side willing to give anything away.
The lads showed some great determination throughout and kept working right until the final whistle. There were some really good spells of football, some excellent defensive work and plenty of effort all over the pitch.
It went all the way to penalties. The lads kept their heads, showed great composure and got the job done! 👏⚽️
A massive well done to every player today. Cup games like this are all about character, and the lads certainly showed plenty of that. Proud of every one of them. 💙
🏆 Parents’ Player of the Match – Shuan
Shuan had a really good game today, playing both on the wing and at left back. He worked hard in both positions, battled for everything and showed some great energy throughout the game. To top it off, he picked up an assist as well. A really solid performance from Shuan. 👏
🏆 Opposition Coach’s Man of the Match – Albie
Albie put in a really strong performance at right back today. He was excellent defensively, winning the ball in the air and standing up well in his 1v1 battles. He was strong, composed and didn’t give his opponent much to work with. A very well-deserved Man of the Match award. 👏
