U18南區聯賽第19輪 https://www.chelseafc.com/news/latest-news/2018/04/ under-18s-report--chelsea-v-southampton.html Under-18s report: Chelsea 4 Southampton 0 Sat 7 Apr 2018 It is now over three years undefeated at home for Chelsea Under-18s as Jody Morris's side recorded another impressive victory to move them a point away from the southern title. While slow out of the blocks at Cobham, and perhaps fortunate not to concede as Southampton made a bright start, Tariq Uwakwe fired us in front just before the break. Three further goals in seven minutes after the restart sealed the points as Martell Taylor-Crossdale, Tino Anjorin and Marc Guehi all netted to secure a 13th win in a row for the young Blues, who will retain the Under-18 Premier League South title with a point away at West Ham next weekend. Six starters from Wednesday's FA Youth Cup win at Birmingham City retained their place in the team for the visit of Southampton, the only side to have beaten our youngsters this season. Karlo Ziger returned in goal behind a back four consisting of Jon Panzo, Guehi, Marcel Lavinier and Tariq Lamptey, the latter continuing his run as our only league ever-present this term. Taylor-Crossdale led the line up front supported by an attacking midfield trio of Uwakwe, George McEachran and Anjorin, while Billy Gilmour partnered skipper Conor Gallagher deeper in midfield. Southampton arrived at Cobham as the team to have inflicted two of our four defeats under Morris since the start of 2016/17, with their 4-0 victory back in October still raw for a group not used to losing, even less so by such significant margins. Yet the Saints showed in the early stages the characteristics that have made them such a tough opponent to take on. Gilmour and Uwakwe had early strikes at goal, the latter's curling attempt towards the far corner plucked from the air by keeper Adam Parkes, but it was Kornelius Hansen who went close to breaking the deadlock in the opening 15 minutes. The wideman pounced on a slip from Panzo and advanced towards the box, jinking inside before bending a left-footed shot narrowly wide of Ziger's upright. Striker Michael Obafemi then utilised his blistering pace to drive beyond Lavinier down the inside-left channel but his low effort at goal lacked the power or precision to trouble our Croatian keeper. A positive moment for the hosts was soon fashioned down the right as Uwakwe and Lamptey combined neatly to set the overlapping full-back running clear down the wing, though McEachran was unable to connect with a header in the box. Southampton enjoyed their best spell of the contest midway through the first period, upping the pressure in the final third and forcing us into defending deep inside the box. Ziger punched clear and Lavinier headed away before Harry Hamblin spurned an opening at the back post as he nodded harmlessly over from a corner. Their best chance was created 10 minutes before the break after Hansen worked a crossing position and delivered from the right, with the ball eventually laid off to the supporting midfielder Sean Brennan. His effort was sweetly struck and left Ziger rooted to the spot but smacked the post and bounced clear. Such spurned opportunities can often be rued at Cobham for visiting teams and within five minutes it was 1-0 to Chelsea. Anjorin had sparked into life with a dangerous drive infield from the left, teeing up Gilmour to hit a deflected shot just wide, before Uwakwe notched the opener after 41 minutes. The midfielder lurked in the box as Panzo persisted down the left and eventually latched on to the left-back's low cross to steer a finish inside the far post. The advantage was perhaps harsh on the Saints and Morris will have demanded more from his players during their half-time briefing. Their response was emphatic as a blistering restart took the game away from Southampton. Gilmour fired a warning shot when he struck the woodwork from 12 yards, while Anjorin's header dropped agonisingly wide following more good build-up play from the lively Uwakwe. Our second goal arrived three minutes before the hour mark and came as the result of an incisive attacking move with the ball eventually delivered by Lamptey and swept home from close range by Taylor-Crossdale for the striker's 20th goal of the campaign. Within seven minutes, the points looked safe for Morris's men as a 4-0 lead was established. Schoolboy midfielder Anjorin claimed the third while knowing very little about it, the ball bouncing off the post from Uwakwe's fierce shot and hitting the 16-year-old to divert back across the line. Gilmour then turned supplier with an inviting inswinging corner that evaded everyone but Guehi at the back post and the defender was left with the simple task of heading in his eighth goal of the season. The margin of victory could have been greater for the Blues. Panzo was denied by a smart save from Parkes as he rampaged forward on the counter-attack, while Uwakwe earned a sight at goal with a clever right-to-left run but could not hit the target on his favoured left foot. Down the other end, Ziger remained alert to preserve a clean sheet, our eighth in nine games and 20th of another impressive term. Arsenal's home defeat at the hands of Leicester City meant our lead at the top of the Under-18 Premier League South extends to 12 points, meaning a draw away at West Ham next weekend will secure a fourth consecutive southern title.
