Glenfield United 2005 Under 14s got off to the perfect start last weekend with a 3-0 win at Earl Shilton Juniors and were looking to continue their 100% record as they hosted Loughborough Dynamo JFC U14s at Gynsill Lane.
They couldn't have wished for a better start to the game. From the first corner of the game, striker Luke Savage headed home before lobbing the keeper from 25 yards to get his and the teams second inside just four minutes.
Dynamo were allowed to get back into the game and grabbed a goal back after 12 minutes in spectacular fashion. The Glenfield defence didn't fully clear as the ball fell to Loughborough's number 10 who scored a superb bicycle kick from ten yards.
United kept pushing looking to restore their two goal lead but it was Loughborough who brought the scores level five minutes before half time. A left wing cross from Dynamo's number seven was met by their number nine who tapped into an empty net.
Loughborough's comeback appeared complete fifteen minutes into the second half. The visitors' number seven, a threat all game, shot from the edge of the area into the bottom right hand corner.
However, Glenfield reacted in perfect fashion, equalising three minutes later. A freekick wasn't dealt with by the Dynamo defence which allowed Jordan Stain to strike home from the edge of the area.
Both sides were pushing for the winner and it was Loughborough who got it. A cross from the right was met in the area by the number seven who scored his second of the game, eight minutes from time.
United continued trying for another equaliser to get at least the point they deserved but it didn't come, losing the game 4-3. The Under 14's 2005 lie third in the Leicester and District Sunday Juniors League Alan Worth Photographic Under 14D table.
United looked threatening from the start and hit the bar twice in the opening 20 minutes. Firstly, Dan Squires hit the bar from inside the box before Jack Foley rattled the horizontal from 30 yards.
The hosts eventually took the lead three minutes before half time. Right winger Jacob Parkes won the ball in his own half and rang the length of the pitch before crossing to striker Will Mayne to slot home.
Two superb saves from Glenfield 'keeper Mitchell Sewell kept the home side ahead, but he had no chance with Thurlaston's equaliser. A 25 yard strike from their number ten flew into the bottom right hand corner twenty minutes from full time.
Glenfield pushed for the winner but had to settle for a point. After two games they're in eighth place in the MDH Teamwear Leicestershire Youth League Under 18 Premier table with one point.
Elsewhere, Glenfield United 2010 U14s recorded an emphatic 7-1 win at Lutterworth Athletic Juniors and are second in the Leicester and District Sunday Juniors League Under 14G table.
