Darlington Under 15s 4 Washington Tigons 0

Darlington Youth u15 hosted Washington Tigons in the Russell Foster Premier League . Darlington lined up with a very attack minded 4-3-3 formation and from the onset of the game the front three of Harry Noble, Adam Bearpark and Bailey Howarth clearly had the beating of the Washington back line and were rewarded when Howarth beat the off side trap and raced in on goal to give Darlington the lead . With the midfield of Harry Hobbs,Bettridge and Matthew Wilson dominating possession Darlington scored again through Howarth after a great passing move involving four players . Darlington were now in full flow and Noble grabbed the third when put through by Bearpark again after a great passing move that started right from the back . Darlington further extended their lead just before half time with Noble powering in a far post header from a free kick . Half time 4-0.

Darlington adopted a more solid 4-4-2 formation for the second half and retained possession well, however Washington now put all eleven players behind the ball and defended well to prevent Darlington from scoring again.
