A crisp and early morning start for Roma today against a good Litherland side who are sat 3rd in the league.
A defeat on opening day for Roma followed by a good win in the last meeting set today up to be a cracker.
First attack of the day went to Roma as Call had great feet and determination in the box. Played to Riley who found Caff but he put it just wide.
GOAL! Great play between Call and Caff to find Riley. Under pressure he stays composed and plays a square ball to Dylan who finishes in an empty net. 1-0.
Effort from range for Litherland as a ball is slipped through. Goes miles wide.
Great save from the Litherland keeper ro deny Dan after a clever cross from Caff.
GOAL! A tactical masterclass on the corner which fools Litherland. Dan runs with it and plays Dylan on the edge of the box. He fires it from range and into the back of the net. 2-0
Consistent pressure from Roma with some delightful crosses from Dylan.
A big chance after a mistake from a goal kick falls to Caff outside the box. It was going in but for the wind!!!!!
Riley finds himself in a great spot and played in by Dylan but fired just wide of the post.
GOAL! Foley and Alfie deal with some heavy pressure at the back. Callum latched on in the left back position and played a tremendous ball to Dylan who works wonders and put the ball in to the back of the net. 3-0.
Lightening strike from distance by Callum denied by the keeper.
Free kick for Litherland kicked away by Noah.
GOAL!! Last minute action of the half is a corner taken by Dylan which hits the bar and put over the line by Caff!! Or was it? Dylan and Caff can fight that one out for themselves!!!! 4-0.
Half time.
First action of the half is a free kick by Scotty. He hits the target but keeper saves well.
Gibbo put through on goal and carried well but fired just wide.
Ryan with a lifted effort goes high in the sky and drops on the bar!
Ryan does well to stay onside as he's played through. He went one on one and uncharacteristically puts it high and wide.
It's all Roma as Gibbo was played in and denied by a solid stop from the Litherland keeper.
Stevie has his hands warmed up as he saved well.
A fine stop from close range by Stevie as Litherland pressed on.
Full time.
A full team MOTM award today as each and every lad played amazing both on and off the ball. Attitudes were the best they've been all season and that matched the performance.
