Following a much improved performance the Under 12’s Thunder (9v9) celebrated their first Division 1 win of the season. Beechy were away to Fives Athletic and straight from the kick-off United put their opponents under pressure. A well delivered corner kick by Jacob Lacey resulted in Beechy taking the lead when the ball deflected off a Fives player and into the net but Fives hit back and levelled the score then the home side went 2-1 up before half time. Looking better organised in the second half the Thunder boys soon displayed their true character and found an equaliser after great vision by Reiss Miller set-up Man of the Match Jacob Lacey who showed his class by calmly slotting the ball into the corner of the net via the coolest of touches. Harvey Walker got in on the act when he put Beechy ahead then Jake O’Sullivan was on target twice thanks to a well taken free kick and a great header.
