Penn hits six as Panthers Thump VG Utd in Youth Soccer
Miles Penn scored six goals as Panthers FC went on an eight-goal rampage against VG Utd in the FA’s National U13 Youth League on Saturday 19th December 2020 at East End / Long Look.
The final score was 8-1 and saw the young Panthers stay top of the standings “honestly my team played some lovely football” beamed Coach Wayne Phillip “they were passing the ball, dribbling, playing aggressively and it was brilliant to watch”
Penn’s first goal for Panthers came in 16th minute after Kyia Flax had given VG Utd the lead in the 14th minute, but then the flood gates opened with Penn scoring again in the 21st minute, to give his team a 2-1 lead at half time and then in the 31st, to complete his hattrick, and the 59th, 60th and 61st.
“Penn’s left foot was sweet, and he made great contact for his goals, but the whole team played well. It was a collective effort and all in all it was a really good performance” noted Phillips
The other scorers were Latriel Williams and Christian Vanterpool
Also, in U13 action, the Wolues FC beat The Sugar Boys FC 3-1 with Oakley Hodges rounding out the scoring in the 90th minute after and own goal and a 50th minute strike from Charlie Potgeiter had put the Wolues in command before Kyle Farrington pulled one back for the Sugar Boys.
In the U17 Clash between One Caribbean FC and VG Utd, it was again the team from Virgin Gorda who took the lead through Deshawn Richardson in the 5th minute, but Azarni Callwood equalized in the 16th minute from the penalty spot and with another goal from Callwood almost at the final whistle, One Caribbean came away with a 2-1 victory.
“It was a battle” commented Coach Morris Mark “we stuck to our game plan though, stifled the speed and skill of their senior players and with Ryan Lettsome and Callwood back from school in the UK we had enough firepower to come through”
Nicholas Haycraft was called upon to make a fine save in the dyeing moments and Dylan Cline and Callwood combined on a swift counterattack that saw Callwood net the winner.
In the other U17 results, Wolues FC beat Rebels FC 1-0 with a Michael Palladino 8th minute goal separating the teams.
