U13 PORTO RETURN TO ACTION IN STYLE WITH HOME WIN AGAINST BROMHAM

Philip Stanley14 Dec - 18:03

A perfect early Christmas present!

(Many thanks to Coach, Andy, for the match report)

Saturday 13 December
MKDDL U13 Division 2
Linslade Galaxy U13 Porto 4 v 2 Bromham United AFC U13 Lions

After two matches called off due to the weather, Porto returned to action in style, delivering a performance that showcased resilience, teamwork, and progress. This was more than just three points; it was a statement of how far the team has come.

Porto struck first, setting the tone early. When Bromham equalised just before half-time, it could have dented confidence, but instead, Porto dug deep, showing maturity and determination. From back to front, every player contributed to a hard-fought victory.
A dubious penalty in added time was only a consolation for the visitors.

The frosty conditions didn't slow Porto down. As the game wore on, the team grew stronger, withstanding pressure and limiting Bromham to long-range efforts. This was a performance full of character, showing grit, skill, and togetherness. Determined runs down the wings showed the attacking intent. Goals from Ryan, Jack (two), and Aiden sealed the win.

This was a match full of impressive displays, emulated by players of the match Hugo and James. Hugo performed well at full-back, neutralising threats down the right and delivering quality balls forward. James was tireless in midfield, breaking up play and creating opportunities.

Full credit to the team. A special mention to Fin, who stepped up between the posts. Teddy, Archie and Logan who were rock solid in central defence. Fred for non-stop energy at full back. Aiden and Ryan for terrorising down the wings, George for his long-range passes, Callum with inspiration in the middle, Stan for his drive up front, and Jack for persistence in attack.

What a way to finish 2025, it gives Porto a fantastic platform for next year.

Merry Christmas and here's to an exciting new year!
