He scores like Ashley Barnes!!!

Post by Claret-On-A-T-Rex » Sun Sep 01, 2019 9:09 pm

First goal of the season for my little lad and future Claret, Vito.

We've been watching all the games and his current favourite striker is Ashley Barnes!

Got to say, I think this goal would do Barnes proud :D :D :D

I hope the ref didn't come and look at your video to check whether his eyebrow was a millimetre offside. :shock:

He's new in the team and has come from Barcelona's overflow (secret club to train poached foreign players) club: DAMM (like the beer).
As I'm sure you'll all know from his previous videos, Vito loves the through ball and first touch shot, a lad who can play that through pass is gold and they work very well together.

In Catalunya you play 7 a side until 13, then they switch to 11 a side.
Each Category: prebenjamin, benjamin, alevins etc covers two years.
So teams of boys aged 10 will play teams of boys aged 12, 8 year olds will play 10 year olds.
So, even if you play for a top club you have a good year and a bad year.
In three seasons we've won the league, been relegated, won the league.

This year will be bad year, the target is to survive (if you always lose leagues and slip down categories you can't attract kids to your club, also Barcelona, Espanyol and now Girona hoover up all the top players, every club outside of Girona is a small town amateur club and all of them are funded in some way by Barcelona, it's a monster) but, a good set of 12 year olds will be able to overrun a good defense of 10 year olds during a sixty minute game.

We lost that first friendly game 8-3 but that was to one of the stronger teams in our category and the signs were good, without individual errors in defense and a bit more luck in attack and it would have been 4-4.
