Result: Minchenden 4 Epping 2

Another sound defensive performance and 4 good goals from 4 different players. One thing we need to work on is holding on to the ball in midfield and passing to feet. Bedros had one of his best games today and won man of the match. He also scored a goal.

League Cup Fixture: Sun 28th Sept - Minchenden v Epping Youth

Home match - Meet at 9:30am

Result: Minchenden 2 Potters Bar 1

Fantastic match and a well deserved victory.

An unfortunate start with an own goal against the run of the play, but soon made up for when Ben got his second to make it 1-1. Good defensive team play with everyone getting back as soon as we loose possession, in order to regain the ball and mount an attack. This led to an excellent shot from Terry to make it 2-1 in second half, they came back strongly but we held on and got back in control and could have made it 3-1 when a short pass from Robert to Tom was ruled off-side. Plenty of superb saves from Djan kept them from scoring.

With excellent defending at left back, particularly with his head getting to the ball first, man of the match was Tim.

Well played everyone.

Fixture: 21st Sept - Minchenden v Potters Bar

Home game. Meet at 9:30

Result: Minchenden 3 Boundary Park 1

Really good game with solid performances from everyone. Great to see the return of Sam and Dylan from illness giving us a full squad. The team's main aim this week was to tackle back and get behind the ball when the opposition won the ball. I'm pleased to see that the whole team did exactly as asked and in particular, Tom Jacob stuck to the task well and deserved man of the match. The solid defence meant we could break away confidently and Sam and Tom were able to stick away three great goals. Djan mande a great penalty save and an even better save from a high, long-range effort. Well done. Adam

A really good effort that deserved more. Superb performance in the second half. Just need to keep alert after conceding a goal so that we don't lose 3 in quick succession again. Man of the match - Rob Dewhirst.
