Worthing Dynamo lined up in a traditional 4-4-2 formation, deploying Archie Parker-Muckle in goal to marshal the defence.

The match began with Worthing Dynamo showing early promise, and it was Theo Phillips who opened the scoring in the 20th minute with a fine solo effort, weaving past defenders to find the net. Just a minute later, Phillips doubled the lead, this time benefiting from a neat short pass from Teddy Gill inside the box to slot home confidently.

However, Selsey U13 responded swiftly, pulling a goal back in the 28th minute to reduce the deficit. They continued to press and found an equaliser before half time, scoring again in the 35th minute to level the match at 2-2 as the teams went into the break.

Despite the scoreline, Archie Parker-Muckle was named player of the match for his efforts in goal, making several crucial saves to keep Worthing Dynamo in the contest for as long as possible. The defensive unit and midfielders battled hard, but the visitors were ultimately undone by Selsey’s clinical finishing and sustained pressure in the latter stages.

Worthing Dynamo U13 Black will look to regroup and build on the positives from their early attacking play as they prepare for their next league encounter.
