U14s Reds: CHAMPIONS 🏆 New Salamis U14s Reds got over the line today and won the league. 1-1 vs St Albans – A first half goal from Miles put the boys ahead and it stayed 1-0 for most of the game. There were opportunities to extend the league but it wasn’t to be. St Albans equalised with under 10 mins to go. Fabio, the goalkeeper, pulled off 2/3 excellent saves with one being right at the end. It was a tough fought game on an awful pitch and conditions but the boys did it. U9s lost . We’ve lost most weeks now that we are in the top division. (Last week we lost heavy ) We are working hard with the team to keep the morale up. U11s: U11s FIRST WIN against HMH some great spells in the game with us scoring some lovely goals and our keeper pulling of great saves towards the end! A win well deserved!!!! U12s: won 4-0 against HMH we were commanding from start to finish. Our defence was solid throughout, and our strike force causing all sorts of problems for the hosts,with our GK, a spectator for virtually the whole game until called into action deep in the 2nd half pulling off a wonder save to keep his clean sheet. The most pleasing thing is that I have 7 U11s playing up a year, and you can’t tell Gianluca (u11) with a superb hattrick today, taking his tally to 11 goals and 12 assists in his 1st season playing up a year which are fantastic stats U13s: lost 9-1 against a promotion-chasing team. A proud physical battling performance by us rattled the opponents as they constantly kept moaning to the referee for every challenge we made. The result flattered the opponents, as it was never a 9-1 result, as we gifted the opposition three goals from mistakes. We need to cut out these mistakes. The difference in teams showed, but it’s our first season and their fourth. We showed spirit and kept battling from the first whistle to the end. 💪🏻 The boys saw the level we need to get to and took it in. 🔴⚪️ U16s Whites: U16s white narrowly lost 2-1 vs ac finchley South. A competitive game and we hit the bar in the last minute and then had it cleared off the line. Deserved a point. A much better performance vs recent weeks. Most of the boys worked hard & it almost paid off. U18s U18s smoked ! Hinton 10 – 1Absolutely a brilliant performance from boys from start to finishes. High tempo playing high and caused Hinton problems from the 1st min who just couldn’t handle our energy levels. From Defence to attach and the subs every knew what was required of them today and we hardly put a foot wrong. Our passes where on point and when we did lose the ball we won to back in 4 secs. Keeper will be MAD with himself to not keep a clean sheet !! Ola who is playing up a year was fantastic and got a deserve goal. ScoresSam scoring 6! – Michael – Penalty – Ola -Rayan – James

U18s Reds: U18s lost 3-0. Started the game with 8 men and was holding out until 2 really avoidable goals given to Hinton We had another 2 more players arrive late and we started to take more control of the game creating severalOpportunities. 2nd half was all us for 35 mins but we wouldn’t find away past the keeper and eventually we gassed out with 3 players also fasting and one pulling up with a hamstring problem. A great effort from the boys today and we couldn’t fault the effort they put in.

New Salamis Youth Match Round up 21 – 2023/2024

U14 Reds: Reds beat a difficult AFC Southgate 8-2. A slow start to the game but the boys settled and went into a 2-0 lead. Complacency kicked in and the opposition scored two to level before half time. However following the break, the boys consolidated and were rampant in the 2nd half scoring 6 goals and even missing a penalty. The Reds march on another step closer to the title. A very deserved win in the rain. U14 Whites : Played top of the table had them on ropes held a 1.1 draw for a long time but again last 10 or so mins they took the lead 3.1 loss this time but proud. Happy to see coach J for a while thanks mate. Currently at Crystal Palace academy as 3 of our salamis boys play palace with PSG. Gassed x U16s Reds Reds lost to Pro Elite 0-7. Just managed to get 11 players today and then only 7 out of the 11 working hard. Really felt for those boys that did turn up and put in 100%. 4-0 down at half time. Second half was much better but very little going forward so we ended up soaking the pressure and conceding another 3. Really disappointed some players today who let their team mates down. U16s Whites: Lost 3 – 2 to HMH Tigers.Pretty poor game, 3 mistakes led to their 3 goals and we scored 2 long shots. Frustrating as we are not doing the basic and this is costing us games.. More work on the training ground it is!!

New Salamis Youth Match Round up 19 & 20 – 2023/2024

U13s: drew 2-2. After a good first 15 minutes, we let in two soft goals, going in 2-0 down at halftime. In the second half, we had a battling and spirited second half where we scored two excellent goals: a long range by Liam and a run by Darragh from CB, beating four players and slotting it in the bottom corner. We had numerous chances to win it and almost nearly nicked it at the end for only the crossbar to save the opposition.🔴⚪️. U13’s lost 3-2; we were the better team in the first half, taking an early lead with a great finish by Harry. More mistakes let them back into the game with two quick-fire goals, going in 2-1 down at halftime. In the second half, we upped the tempo, and a long-range goal by Sammie brought it back to 2-2. We couldn’t find the third goal and knew we were going to run out of chances, but the ball wouldn’t go in. A controversial goal at the end, where the player was 2 yards offside, sealed the win for the opposition. If we buried our chances, the game would have been a comfortable win. There are a lot of positives to take out of the game, but we need to cut out the mistakes.. 🔴⚪️ U14s Reds : New Salamis U14 Reds won a thrilling match today. The title chasing team went 4-0 down within the first 15 mins. They regrouped but went into half time with the score remaining the same. They boys came out for the 2nd half like a team possessed and won the game 5-4 with a late goal. Mo scored 3 and Isaiah 2. Unbelievable !!!! 5-4 win and a step closer to a great end to the season New Salamis U14 Reds beat St Albans 4-2 in a top of the table clash. The reds raced ahead into a two goal lead with goals from Isaiah and Mo. They went into the interval 2 goals ahead. The boys scored early into the second half to make it 3-1 with Isaiah getting his 2nd goal. A lovely solo run and finish. St Albans replied quickly but the boys stayed resilient and finished the game off with Miles scoring a lovely goal. Exciting end to the season ahead. 4-2 👏🏻 U14s Whites: U14 Spring Plate – Great game today for both teams, we arrived with a man down and played a very strong competitive battle, from 1.0 up to allowing x2 simple goals in, 1.1 and then 1.2 down at half time, I feel we played some amazing football at times but couldn’t take the many chances we created. Second half both teams came out strong again bringing it back to 2.2 followed by a little blunder where a goal kick hit our defender and hit the back of the net. Game ended in a 2.3 loss but we deffo dominated the opportunities. Well done to everyone today. We still desperately need players to add value to the team so please think of us if you know anyone. New Salamis Youth U14 White: 2 – St Albans City East: 3 Borhamwood Elites vs New Salamis U14 white. – Full size adult pitch as well. What an amazing performance from our 10 man squad today, we played the top of the table and gave them the best game they have ever had this season, we took the lead 2.0 which has not happened to them before in the group and a saved penalty by Hermann, came out at half time 2.1 to us and the second half was even more exciting, opposition managed to bring it back to 2.2 and unfortunately for us with no subs they managed to break through a tired salamis in the last 10 or so minutes of the game. Opposition said it was the best game they had been involved in with a strong 10 man Salamis Team. I personally prised every single opposition player, and their parents praised our boys at the end for the battle. Well done all. Man of the match GK Hermann Steiner. Game ended 3.2 to Elites. We are still very proud of the boys for this game.

New Salamis Youth Match Round up 18 – 2023/2024

U10s: drew 5-5 against a team (Alexandra park west) we lost 4-2 too earlier in the season definitely showed improvement as we were ahead a few times before they managed to score with a minute left to go entertaining to watch and the lads enjoyed it on to the next week U11s: not a bad performance but woke up fully last 10 minutes which wasn’t enough they showed fight to try and get back into the game with aiden scoring a wonder goal U12s: back to winning ways with a thumping of SSW 3-0 could’ve been 5 or 6. The boys all competed well from start to finish winning their battles all over the pitch. Our keeper was only tested twice, and both times, he made excellent saves. I’m super proud of them all U13s: lost 5-3 to Borehamwood Crusaders in the Spring Cup. We played a team in the league above but still very disappointed because we gave some very poor goals away. Shouldn’t be losing to that team. Anyway, it’s happened, we learn and move on 👍🏻 U14s: lost 2.0 in the most unluckiest way possible.We dominated the game in both halves, held possession throughout, opposition basically parked the bus, some how stuck 3 men where ever the ball went, opposition had 2 shots on target which a bobbly pitch allowed the ball to pop over our gk who dived low and would have saved it on a flatter surface, We had our chances. Lost 2.0 in a shield game to a team that beat us before as had no gk and today they got very lucky with the first goal and second with a counter after an amazing effort from Julian. We will play them again in the second leg. U16 Whites: lost 1 nil to Hinton Heroes. A very underpar performance from the team today. H U16s Reds lost 5-0 to Whetstone in the cup. Due to being let down by players, injuries and exams led to only 11 players turning up to game with no keeper. Boys worked hard keeping it tight at 1-0 to half time. Some of the 11 players were playing with injuries, worked hard but could not stop the opposing team as fatigue set in. U18s Reds: won with a deserved 4-1 win against a physical Edmonton ranger team. Dominated the game but didn’t really get going till we switched to a 3 5-2 which then allowed us to open up the Edmonton defence and create several scoring opportunities.

U10s: won 2-1 today was a good battle again Afc Southgate lads played really well. Definitely showing signs of progress U11s: 1-1 draw we are getting there very strong performance against a big side some quality performances! U12s: went down 3-2 against Borehamwood. we were not our usual best today and face a tough game next week against the league leaders. Hopefully we can get it right U13s: lost 3-1 today against a tough Highgate team. Excellent end to end game going in leading 1-0 at Half Time. Missing our whole back 4 today, we battled from the first whistle to the last. They showed real character and determination and never gave up. Really proud of the boys 👍🏻. U14s Reds: won 8 – 1 today after a sloppy start. Once we got our equalizer from Mo started to play football and went in at half time with a goal from georgio to Finnish of the first half 2 -1 from then on Mo bagged in 5 goals followed by a worldy goal from Kaan to Finnish of a great day for the boys⚪️🔴 U18s lost 1-2 To Highgate Unit. We had possession for most of the game and when we equalised early in the second half I was sure we were going to go on and win the game. However we were unable to take our chances and conceded an unexpected goal when our defender was fouled by Highgates forward an went on to score with no intervention by the referee. We played some great football and did not deserve to lose, however if you don’t take your chances you get punished.

New Salamis Youth Match Round up 16 – 2023/2024

U10s: Lost 5-3. Boys played well. It was 3-3 right up until last minutes of game where the opposition managed to get 2 against us and go on to win the game U11s: lost 2-0 we was very dominant throughout the game just couldn’t finish our chances despite create loads but overall good performance loads of positives U12s: drew 4-4 against Omonia. we started the game badly missing our skipper who was carrying an injury from last week, and we quickly went 2-0 down, conceding 2 bad goals. With our skipper back on the pitch, we pulled back to 2-2 at half time with a spirited comeback. Onto the 2nd half and again, we found ourselves behind 3-2 again, conceding poorly fault back to 3-3 only to down again once more, gifting them a 4th. But fair credit to the boys coming back once again to 4-4 them had 1 disallowed and a few other chances to take the game. But a drew most a fair result U13s: U13’s lost 14-0 against a tough Winchmore Hill (league leaders which have won 11 out 12 this season, which IMO should be 2 divisions above). After a positive start to the game, we were excellent for the first 15 mins and held our game and battled. They scored a lucky goal to make it 1-0 then some simple mistakes gifting them a few goals b4 half time. Second half was tough as they upped there game, no fight or effort from the team today making it easy for the opposition to play. A flattering result for them and the opposition manager came and spoke to me after the game and praised 4 of our players which were excellent. Onto the next game. U14s Reds: Under 14s Reds lost 5-1 to Alyth Belsize. We competed well against the team who is a league above and the score line doesn’t really reflect the match. We went 1-0 behind early on but equalised immediately. We went in half time 2-1 down and restarted the game poorly once again. We quickly went 3-1 down and then eventually lost 5-1. Our goalkeeper made a couple of bad errors that led to goals. We also missed a golden chance, hit the woodwork twice and their keeper pulled off two great saves (one was unbelievable). Some things to think over for improvement. U14s: U14 whites played in the spring plate against Alexandra park south and won 5-1 The boys battled from the off, still only 11 players and on a little bigger pitch that we are use to but we gave it our all. Positivity wins games. Goal scorers todayAdam ✔️Erald M ✔️ assist JulianHussein ✔️ assist AdamH-Emre ✔️ assist Erald LJulian ✔️ assist Hussein U16s: U16s white lost 6 nil to AC finchley west.Not a good performance. GK didn’t have one his good days which happens and he will pick himself up for sure . Opponents run into an early 3 goal lead & boys dropped their heads. Ended the last 30mins of the game with 10 ,as serious injuries have left us v short. Key players missing U16 Reds: lost 8-3 to Bloomsbury. First game this year so took a 20 mins to get into the game. Was 2-1 down 10 mins before half time then 3 poor goals from poor mistakes. HT we went in 5-1 down.2nd half they were awarded a penalty after what looked like a player got shot, didn’t see any contact. Another 2 goals from mistakes at the back made it 8-1. Boys then decided to play and brought it back to 8-3 (should have been more) as they dominated the final 20 mins of the second half. Was tough as we are missing two of our best players and only had 12 on the day. Boys showed good character to pick things up in the second half but still a disappointing scoreline which was of our own making. U18s Midweek: U18s lost 1-0 to Barnet FC u18s last tonight from an own goal !! 😫 Decent performance from the boys just needed to be clinical in front of goal – first half 4 opportunities to score with just the keeper to beat!! Second half we was a under a lot of pressure and couldn’t break down the strong Barnet defence. Outstanding performance was Taurian (GK) saved a penalty and made 5 really good saves.

U9s: Good win for the U9’s against AFC Southgate U10s: U10 drew 5-5 came back from 4-1 at half time started off slow should have won , but proud of the Boys for their determination to pull it back to a draw U11s: lost 2-1 to Hinton and Finchley legends – Battled very well came out unlucky starting to gel as a team properly! U12s: Well, what can I say about todays u12 game winning 2-0 with 6 mins left to go. Superb victory and keeps us in the front of the pack U14s Reds: lost 5-3 to Borehamwood Crusaders in the Spring Cup. We played a team in the league above but still very disappointed because we gave some very poor goals away. Shouldn’t be losing to that team. Anyway, it’s happened, we learn and move on 👍🏻 U14s: 10 man U14 White Vs Hinton & FinchleyA group above us and beat us 5-1 before, spring plate and we literally went for it from the off. We won 2.1 today. An amazing feeling for our boys. U16s: U16s white lost 1-0 at Whetstone. Whetstone top of the league (and will likely win it) thought they would walk all over us but we put in a superb performance & battled from first to last minute.Whetstone lost their heads, a few of their players were frustrated & despite the scoreline, we left heads held high whilst they got a bollocking from their manager. Huge improvement and very proud of the boys. 👍🏼⚽️ U18s Reds: U18s midweek lost 4-2 to Brentwood town – but some positives with several new faces putting in good performances. We play Barnet FC at his Wednesday which will be a good test. U18s Sunday lost 2-0 . sloppy defending and lack of communication from our keeper cost is today. Second half it was all us but just we just couldn’t find away past there keeper
