Football: Youth notes
DISS TIGERS U10 finished their season with yet another outstanding performance, in difficult conditions. From the kick off, Diss were on top and Ryan Davidson breezed by four defenders to finish in the bottom corner. Soon after, Davidson made it two with a replica strike. Olly Budd, Charlie Norman and Joe Collett were playing exhibition football in the midfield with Bradley Budd keeping the Firside attack quite. Just before half-time, Firside clawed a goal back after a lapse in concentration by the Diss defence. After the break, Aaron Noller on the right, created lots of chances, however it was the irrepressible Davidson on the left who completed his hatrick by clinically finishing off some good combination play that included Collett and Norman. The fourth goal came from Olly Budd, whose surging run through a beleaguered defence supplied the inch perfect pass for Tompkins to finish. MOTM Kyle Bullingham, produced the one handed save of the season, diving full length to tip a certain goal over the bar. A top class save, appreciated by both sets of supporters. Diss Tigers 4 Firside Utd 1. This completes a great first season for the Tigers, finishing second in the Norfolk Youth Football Combination, Division 1.
