Under-18s report: Chelsea 2 Reading 0

Sat 15 Oct 2016


Our youth team claimed victory after a hard-fought encounter in the
Under-18 Premier League south section.


The home side were frustrated for long periods by a Reading back-line that
worked hard and lined up deep across the field. Yet Tariq Uwakwe's goal
after 70 minutes and substitute Charlie Brown's stoppage-time strike won
the game and made it consecutive 1-0 wins for our youngsters.


Jody Morris made five changes from our last outing, a 1-0 home win against
West Ham a fortnight ago. Reece James, Marc Guehi, Conor Gallagher, George
McEachran and Uwakwe returned to the side, with James and Guehi joining
captain Josh Grant and Cole Dasilva in a back four protecting Jamie
Cumming in goal.


The Blues operated with a diamond in midfield from the start as Luke
McCormick anchored just behind Uwakwe and Gallagher. McEachran lined in
the number 10 role behind strikers Harvey St Clair and Martell
Taylor-Crossdale.


Morris's side came into the third-versus-second league encounter having
not been beaten at home in 22 matches and they asserted their typical
control on the game from the first whistle. St Clair came within inches of
converting McEachran's low cross with just 20 seconds on the clock, before
Taylor-Crossdale fired narrowly wide.


Royals keeper Liam Driscoll made a good stop after 10 minutes to deny St
Clair, smothering the ball at the forward's feet after a smart pass
forward from Gallagher. James and Gallagher then brought saves from the
visiting stopper before Grant made an excellent last-ditch challenge to
deny Joel Rollinson in the opposite box.


Rollinson then tested Cumming at the near post as the sides went in
goalless at the break before Driscoll saved James's fierce rising drive
shortly after the restart. The visitors looked brighter on the ball and in
attacking areas in the early part of the second half. Striker Ben House
fired into the side-netting before Ade Shokunbi shot wide.


However, the young Blues remained a threat and St Clair went agonisingly
close as his driven delivery flashed across the face of goal. The
breakthrough finally arrived after 70 minutes and it was Morris's men
celebrating after a slick passing move, our best passage of the morning.
McEachran released Dasilva down the left flank and his cross was teed up
by Taylor-Crossdale for Uwakwe to steer into an unguarded net.


The onus was on Reading to respond now and they went close to an instant
reply as Teddy Howe's low cross was diverted inches wide of his own post
by skipper Grant. Guehi then made a terrific block to deny Loader, while
Ramarni Medford-Smith shot straight at Cumming as the visitors swung the
balance of the game in their favour.


Cumming was called into action again moments later, pushing away a
dangerous drive before denying Loader with his feet and then watching as
the Reading midfielder blazed over the crossbar following a bright
advance.


Brown sealed the points with virtually the game's final kick, moving
cleverly away from Harry Philby in the box before curling a strike into
the bottom far corner.


The youngsters return to action next weekend with a trip to Tottenham.
Before then, our development squad continue their Checkatrade Trophy
campaign with a trip to Exeter City on Tuesday 18 November, live on
Chelsea TV.
