Newton Longville U12 Lions 0 – 2 Linslade Galaxy U12 Porto

Porto shone in their orange away kit as they secured their second win of the season. It was a great victory against a team with top three aspirations.

Porto showed continued progression from recent matches and got their just rewards at last. They stunned their opponents with greater commitment and desire, on a wonky pitch that wasn't receptive to free-flowing football. To keep a clean sheet as well showed their dominance at both ends. It could have been more when Jack forced their keeper into a great save late on when his shot was tipped over.

Players of the match were Tom and Callum. Tom had great energy throughout, making runs forward and scoring a great header from a corner. Callum was a menace in midfield and scored a sweet left-footed strike from long range.

This was another step forward in Porto's development. They were well-organised and disciplined in keeping their shape, doubling-up on known dangers and working superbly well as a team. They withstood any danger from corners or attacks with everyone playing their part.

We are delighted with the way they performed, and really impressed. It was a super morning in the sun and leaves the team hoping for exciting end to the season.
