England V Luso Cymru Futal Club

Match Report

England deaf futsal had a further opportunity to apply their learning and keep the on court rhythm as they faced a strong Welsh side - Luso Cymru.

The deaf lions had started the game well by following the messages from the staff appropriately. Therefore, managed to control the game tempo and possession during the first 10 minutes, England had created lots of chances but could not convert in front of goal. The team were then punished for the complacency in the final third as Luso broke the deadlock with 5 minutes of the first half to go in front of goal from a lapse in concentration from the Lions.

However, 1 minute later, the Lions equalised through a well worked passing combination which fell to Byron around the backpost area as he slotted it away. Shortly after, England scored another as the goalkeeper - Tommy - made the most of his time on the ball to find Rhyan between the lines who dealt with the pass perfectly and slotted the ball away on a 1 touch finish, ending the half 2-1 up.

The first minute of the second half was a wake up call for the Lions as they conceded from the first minute to make it 2-2. England fought back through the quality of Adam and Jamie who both respectively scored the last few goals for the England Deaf Lions to finish to match 6-4. The last 15 minutes of the game saw England keep up with their practice of patterns of play and combinations completed over the course of the previous camps which help prepare the team for the upcoming World Cup away in Brazil

Marcos and his Deaf Lions can be content with the collective progress made against a strong and physical team. Improving in the right direction.
