MATCH SUMMARY : ARDEN FOREST YOUTH (11 September 2011)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; line-height: 13pt;">Sutton United earned their first league win of the seasons thanks to four fine goals in a hard fought match against Arden Forest.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; line-height: 13pt;">Sutton made a positive start picking up where they had left off last week with a real desire and will to get the ball and play along the floor.They soon found themselves 1-0 up after three minutes when some strong hold up play by Zain allowed the midfield to join in before a low hard shot from Zain nestled in the bottom right hand corner.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; line-height: 13pt;">With confidence flowing Sutton started to move the ball well with Harry proving a thorn in the side of Arden Forest with some marauding runs down the right beating two or three players before whipping in some quality balls.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; line-height: 13pt;">More chances were falling to Zain and Josh but it was Carl that extended the lead to 2-0 midway through the half with a well hit strike after some good interwork between the forwards.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; line-height: 13pt;">Sutton were taking more control of the game and looking solid at the back where the back four were marshalling Arden&rsquo;s big centre forward well.Sutton showed a great balance between attack and defence with Ross keeping his new position as holding midfielder well allowing Carl forward.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; line-height: 13pt;">After the Break Sutton continued to push the tempo of the game and the work down the flanks was causing Arden trouble with every attack.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; line-height: 13pt;">In the Sutton goal Ryan was doing everything he needed to do well with his kicking really improving from game to game and while Sutton were caught on a couple of occasions by the break or a moments hesitation at the back they were marshalling the game well.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; line-height: 13pt;">It wasn&rsquo;t long when Sutton went 3-0 up after great interchange between Zain and Josh saw Josh lob the keeper to finish off a great team move.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; line-height: 13pt;">With confidence flowing Oscar, Regan and Dan joined the game and did really well with all three of them adding something different to the Sutton performance.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; line-height: 13pt;">With 10 minutes to go Carl topped off a great performance with a long range effort from the right hand side of the box with a high looping shot that beat the keeper and nestled in the top corner.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; line-height: 13pt;">Great Performance by everybody and a well deserved 3 points.
