No league title this season for the young Clarets

Wednesday 1 February 2023, Chelmsford City U19  0 Aveley U19 2 - National League U19 Alliance, Division A, Moulsham School


Chelmsford are Divisional Champions and also National Cup winners but currently are some way behind the top two.


Both teams looked well coached but neither keeper had to make one save in the first half as both defences were well on top. Team talks must have worked, as in the 48th minute Chelmsford had the first goal attempt of the game, with a header just missing and then Aveley had shot saved in the 50th. Time for a further chance each before Aveley went ahead in the 52nd minute with a glancing header. Numerous substitutions made the game disjointed, however Chelmsford had most of the possession, but in the 86th minute Aveley added a second, to secure an important away win.


The G3 pitch is on the school campus, it does have a spectator area inside the cage, however that is on the school side and so only able to be used by pupils. Parents and others have to watch from outside the cage on a public footpath that separates the cage/school from a local playing field. The path is tarmac and so no issue watching the game.
