Baker leads from the front to give Mangos victory

MANGOTSFIELD United Under-11s were in great form as they soared to an 11-0 Division B victory over St Vallier.

Mangos played an intelligent passing game in the opening encounter which paid off with a convincing 5-0 success. Harry Haughton and Isaac Staples combined supremely well together upfront to secure a brace each, while man-of-the-match Euan Baker led his defence well and netted with an outstanding 30-yard strike.

Field emerged emphatic victors in game two also as star man James Mayer battled strongly in midfield and scored twice with great strikes, while Edward Baker supplied a well-taken hat-trick thanks to clever defence-splitting passes from Lewis Leslie. Corey Jackson notched an opportunist goal to see Mangos to a 6-0 win.

Keynsham Town Under-11s lost their proud unbeaten record in their 14th Division B match of the season. But they didn't go down without a fight in an absorbing fixture with Bitton, which the visitors snatched 3-2.

After Keynsham had passed up a golden opportunity in the first ten seconds of the game, Bitton soon took the lead when an excellent corner was guided home.

The equaliser came with just four minutes remaining as Miles Baker's attempt hit the bar and Charlie Stacey kneed home the rebound.

Again Town were unable to capitalise on an early chance in game two, as a penalty was saved in the first two minutes and Bitton went on to take the lead.

Adam Smale levelled things up for Town with a superb individual goal, but Bitton scored again just after the restart and this time held on, despite a second half full of close shaves, good saves and shots hitting the goal frame at both ends.

Broadwalk Under-11s swept to another emphatic Division C victory, Yate United their victims this time as they were felled 13-0.

The first match began with visiting Broadwalk struggling to beat the Yate keeper and it wasn't until the final five minutes of the first half that two quickfire goals from star man Lewis Neale, who went on to complete his hat-trick after the break, set them on their way, Daniel Clark and Jordan Lee Walters rounding off a 5-0 victory. The visitors netted eight more times in game two as star man Keegan Thorne and Cody Vile each smashed trebles and Reece Morgan and Christian Ayabaah, with an edge-of-box rocket, ensured another big Broadwalk win.

Meanwhile, in the A Division, Stoke Lane Under-11s completed the double over Avon Athletic by beating them 2-1 over a very tight two games. Avon took the lead in the opening encounter and it wasn't until the final minute when Matty Binding crucially scored an excellent equaliser for Stoke Lane. The second game was also a close affair but Liam Harvie proved the Lane hero by netting the only goal.
