Under-18s report: Chelsea 0 Fulham 3

15 May 2021


Our Under-18s were defeated on Saturday morning by Fulham who clinched the
Under-18 South league title.


We visited Fulham just before Christmas but an own-goal in the first half
gave our neighbours the upper hand. Joe Haigh found the net 16 minutes from
time as we showed signs of recovery but Fulham's Oliver O'Neill got the
winner one minute before the whistle to snatch the points.


Ahead of the first whistle we sat seventh on 36 points and a win would see
us conclude our season in fifth place. Meanwhile, Fulham are in second
place on 53 points, three behind league leaders Crystal Palace. With a
significantly higher goal difference than Palace a win would see our
visitors lift the league title.


The first half ended in Fulham's favour but that was far from the story of
the opening 45 minutes of football. We started well and looked bright up
until and after we conceded, but struggled to turn our possession into
chances as the visitors were happy with their lead.


A half-time team talk from Ed brand saw the team return to the field full
of energy and register a host of chances, getting closer to a goal each
time. While we attacked Fulham waited for the opportunity to counter and
were clinical on the two occasions they managed to breach our back line.


Fulham's three-goal lead clinched them the league title and we finished
the season in seventh place on 36 points.
