Under-18s report: Chelsea 3 Tottenham Hotspur 2

19 Apr 2022


Leo Castledine scored a late winner to give Ed Brand's side a 3-2 win in
the first of two London derbies this week for the home side. After goals
from Ronnie Stutter and Edwin Andersson were each equalised by Spurs, up
stepped Castledine who gave the keeper no chance with a strong header.

Brand used this game as an opportunity to play two players who have
predominantly been with the Under-16s this campaign. Harrison
Murray-Campbell made his second consecutive start for the Under-18 team
and Max Merrick was selected between the sticks.


It was a brilliant start from our young Blues as a fast break in the
opening moments of the game led by Louis Flower was finished off well by
Stutter who calmly finished over Adam Hayton in the Spurs goal.

Despite a good positive start, it did not take long for the away side to
respond, and it was as a result of our doing as Max Merrick's attempted
pass out from the back was intercepted by Max McKnight who smashed the
ball into the back of the net.


We did not let their goal shake us as we maintained good patience by
controlling the possession and after some inventive play by Sam Rak-Sakyi
which found Andersson, we scored our second. Andersson drove towards the
goal and calmly slotted past the keeper's outstretched leg.

It was the away team's turn to have a good spell of pressure and the best
opportunity from this period was a speculative effort from Billy Heaps
which was moving in the air but Merrick atoned for his earlier error with
a good one-handed stop.


Tottenham did pull it back once again five minutes before half-time when a
well-delivered set-piece found its way to the back post and with Merrick
in the melee attempting to claim the initial cross, Jamie Donley was on
hand to tap into an empty net.


Both teams in the second half had chances to take the lead but the biggest
of these fell to Malik Mothersille who was played in by a fantastic ball
from substitute Jimi Tauriainen, but the eventual shot was stopped by the
right boot Hayton.


Another second-half substitute almost grabbed the go-ahead goal as
Castledine came close with a shot on the swivel in the penalty area. It
beat the keeper but only just went wide of the goal.


We continued to apply the pressure with a number of crosses delivered into
the box and it finally paid off five minutes from time. A corner taken by
Andersson found the head of Castledine who powered it past the Spurs
keeper.

A deserved win from our young Blues as despite the league title being out
of reach, the desire the team showed to win the game was exemplary. It
maintains what has so far been a winning start to local derby week for the
Pride of London.
