Goals galore for many Omonia Youth FC teams
April 24, 2018
As the season draws to a close, players, coaches and parents enjoyed a festival of goals as many teams from Omonia Youth FC scored plenty in their quest for end of season honours.
In an early morning kick off, Michael Pieri’s Under 13 White played their best football for a long time. They created lots of chances and went into a deserved 2-0 lead. Poor decision making in the final minute of the first half gifted the opposition a goal and then a dubious penalty awarded saw the opposition equalise. The Under 13 White battle on and kept playing their football as they hit the woodwork twice and had other chances to score but couldn’t get the winning goal their football deserved. A positive performance bodes well for the future. Alfonso and Emmanuel got the goals with Alfonso awarded the Man of the Match for an outstanding centre forward display.
Chris and Jimmy Mousicos’ under 13 Gold won their away game 2-1 thanks to a last minute winner. Goals from Jason Kasa and Cem Poyraz. Man of the Match was Rayen Harboubi
Nick Zimaras’ Under 18 White won a nine goal thriller by the odd goal as the boys played some great football after going 1-0 down to lead 3-1 at half time. A further two goals saw them go 5-1 up but switched off to allow the opposition to make it a tighter finish then necessary. Goals from Rosley, Aaron, Toye, Charlie and George. Man of the Match was George Charalambous
Kenny Gregori and Nick Georgiou’s Under 15 White won at home 4-1. It was a great performance by all the boys and a well deserved win against a strong opponent. With players missing manager Nick and Kenny had to play some boys in new positions and they did a great job and got the result with some spectacular goals. There were some proud coaches and parents at the final whistle.
Goals from Peter Michael (3) and Stefanos Kizas and thanks to his hat trick , Peter was named Man of the Match.
Omi Omirou’s Under 12 Green completely dominated their opponents as they won 9-3. Jamal M scored six goals and was also rightly named Man of the Match. Other goals were scored by Leo I (2) and Alex K.
In the Mid Herts Premier League, the Under 15 Green had to play a ‘double header’ in their quest for the league title. Thankfully the boys did their job and won both matches; the first one 5-0 and the second one 4-0.
In the first match, the under 15 Green started the game well taking an early lead with a fine goal from Michael Dionisiou. The opposition goalkeeper cleared the ball from the edge of his box fell but the ball fell to Michael on the half way line who chipped the goalkeeper to make it 1-0. This was followed by a fine goal from 20 yards by Clinton Beokojie. A further two goals by Tobenna Abana to take them 4-0 up at half time. George Stasi scored a fine individual goal to complete the scoring. In the second game the scorers were Tobenna Abana, Michael Kleopa scoring a great header, Luca Cardines and George Stasi. Man of the Match for game one was Michael Dionisiou while Lawrence Young got the award for the second game.
It was a well-earned and important six points and the team now go on to their first of two cup finals next week high on confidence. Well done and good luck.
