Worthing Minors Youth 1 Felpham Colts 0

Felpham Colts travelled to Worthing for this challenge cup 1st round match. With a strong wind behind them in the first half, Felpham struggled at times to break down a strong minors defence. Rhys Nicholas worked away up front on his own trying to make a chance and won 2 corners in quick succession. Oliver Payne who was making his debut in midfield along side Cian Markie and Daniel Kearns made some good challenges. Chances in the first half were at a premium for both sides and this left the half time score goalless.

The second half started brightly for Felpham with Luke Hubbard coming on into midfield and making some good runs. Luke Dent then made his debut for the colts and settled in well.

With 10 minutes remaining Worthing then broke away from a throw in and scored. This left the colts in need of an equalizer to force extra time but the minors goalkeeper made a great save with minutes remaining to send them through to the next round. A special mention for a superb defensive display should go to Sam Blunt and man of the match Fraser Partridge.
