YOUTH REPORT: ASTON VILLA 0 CHELSEA 3

Posted on: Sat 22 Feb 2014


Our Under-18 side produced a superb away performance this afternoon and
won courtesy of three second-half goals.


After four league games without a win, the young Blues picked up three
very impressive points on the road, the least they deserved for what
manager Adi Viveash described afterwards as their 'best footballing
display of the season'.


We were dominant for much of the 90 minutes but went into the break all
square after Charlie Colkett saw a penalty superbly saved. Undeterred, we
took the lead on the hour mark through Jake Clarke-Salter and two more
goals soon followed, Tammy Abraham and Kasey Palmer the scorers, the
latter from the penalty spot.


On a wonderful playing surface in the Midlands Chelsea started in
sprightly fashion and used the quality of the pitch to good effect,
spraying the ball around neatly and building up some good passing moves.


The 4-3-3 formation deployed by Viveash suited the vibrant front three of
Abraham, Dom Solanke and Reece Mitchell, and their movement helped create
a couple of decent openings for Palmer, who twice shot narrowly over the
bar. Abraham, an Under-16 forward, angled a drive just wide as the Blues
began to build up a head of steam.


A driving run from Mitchell out on the left was illegally halted by a home
defender inside the box. Captain Colkett stepped up to take the penalty
but his effort, destined for the bottom corner, was brilliantly saved low
down to the keeper's left.


Villa threatened just before half-time when a low cross from the right
narrowly evaded the striker's outstretched leg, so the teams headed into
the dressing rooms level, with just a goal missing from an excellent
Chelsea performance.


The Villains enjoyed their best spell of the match in the opening minutes
of the second period but didn't turn possession of the ball into clear
goalscoring opportunities. Mukhtar Ali was injured after a heavy tackle on
55 minutes, with Ruben Sammut replacing the midfielder, and five minutes
later we took the lead. Colkett's corner was powerful headed in by Jake
Clarke-Salter for the centre-back's second youth team goal.


That advantage was quickly added to. Palmer fed the ever-dangerous Solanke
who went round the last Villa defender, drew the keeper and laid the ball
on a plate for Abraham who finished coolly.


Two became three with Solanke again at the heart of the play. The striker,
a midweek Youth Cup scorer, tricked his way past a Villa full-back before
being felled in the box. Palmer stepped up this time and sent the keeper
the wrong way.


We had some opportunities to extend our lead even further late on but it
was the hosts who had the final clear chance of the game, Bradley Collins
making a superb save from their centre-forward to preserve his clean sheet.


Adi Viveash was understandably thrilled with his young team's performance,
made all the more impressive by the fact seven members of our Under-16
squad featured in the victory.


'I think it was our best footballing display over 90 minutes this season,
certainly of the league games we've played on a Saturday,' enthused
Viveash. 'We obviously had quite a few Under-16s playing - five from the
start, and two more, Ruben Sammut and Charlie Wakefield, came on.


'There was some fine performances all over the pitch. I wouldn't like to
single anybody out but a lot of the scholars were very good today. Bradley
Collins in goal was sound and Jay Dasilva was sensational at the back. The
likes of Houghton, Palmer, Colkett and Solanke were also fantastic.


'For individuals to shine in that quality of performance is quite
difficult but a number did. It was a really positive display.'
