Venue: Away

On a beautiful afternoon, FSM U12Bs kicked off their season with a commanding 8-0 victory over Dumpton U12Bs. The match began evenly, with both teams battling for control. Dumpton nearly won a penalty early on, but FSM's defense held firm. After 10 minutes, Jasper broke the deadlock with a composed finish, slotting the ball into the top of the net after a one-on-one with the goalkeeper. Thomas was solid in goal, handling everything Dumpton threw at him, while Clayton added to the scoreline, finding the back of the net with a clinical strike. Jamie and Charlie were rock-solid upfront - chasing the ball and making vital tackles to break up Dumpton’s play, and Samuel and Jo Jo both made some hard-fought challenges in defense . FSM dominated the first half, with Jamie curling in a stunning goal directly from the corner flag. Jasper followed up with a half-volley, making it 4-0 at halftime. In the second half, FSM maintained their momentum. Charlie made surging runs down the wing, creating chances as the team tightened their marking. Despite a few near misses, including several shots over the bar from Jamie, Jamie’s second goal was well-deserved and Charlie finally added to the scoreline. Thomas and Jo Jo also got on the scoresheet, and an unfortunate own goal from Dumpton took the score to 8-0. Jasper, now in goal, barely had any action as FSM completely controlled the game, securing a well-deserved victory to start the season on a high note.
