18th and 19th October Results

Wasps 2 - 2 Ashton Keynes

Smashing goals from Arthur and Jay earned a draw in the friendly v AK. Well done to everyone, especially those playing out of their normal position for a change. Key learning points: players need to be patient in the tackle and not step in, and try to control the ball rather than trying to kick it away first time.



Wasps 2 - 4 Ramsbury

After literally giving away two goals early on, Wasps dug in and played some of their best football of the season against the league leaders. Everyone worked hard and should be proud of the performance today. A good strike from Tom plus perseverance in the goal-mouth from James gave us two deserved goals. The key learning point from this game is to give 100% concentration right from the kick-off. We also learned that we can kill-off the threat from danger players with strong marking and by defending properly.
Captains MoM Samuel: for hard work in midfield, Coaches Mom: James for his first goal and hard work in second half.

Wasps 3 - 1 Cricklade

The boys had a great game against Cricklade today, winning 3-1. More importantly it was an impressive performance, lots of passing, challenging for the ball, tackling and not giving up on the ball. Goals for Johan (Captain's MoM), Arthur and Tom as a result of good passing and perseverance. Excellent goalkeeping and defence (including Coaches MoM George).

Stratton Youth 2 - 2 Wasps

Wasps worked hard today to earn a point. We created lots of chances, defended well and challenged hard in midfield. Well done to Tom (Captain's MoM) for 2 goals and Johan (Coaches MoM). If we can convert all the goal chances into gaols we will win lots of matches like this!

Ashton Keynes 2 - 7 Wasps

Wasps worked hard and played some great football to beat Ashton Keynes in a friendly. Ewan played well in goal, Tom and Dom were strong in defence. The midfield challenged well for the ball and managed to get some passes going. Nick, Jay and James all took their opportunities to score a goal. Arthur ran well with the ball and used space cleverly to score 4 goals, 2 from outside of the box. Well done!!
