Juventus League U16s
Okehampton Argyle 0
Stoke Gabriel 5
THIS was a good Argyle performance, but not up to the standard set in the last two weeks.
Okehampton often did enough to contain the attacks but lacked flair in the back row which has been the bedrock of the recent improvement. However, chances were created from midfield which, had Okehampton followed through, could have produced a few goals.
Once again, man of the match Adam Griffiths put in a committed captain?s performance, setting the standard. Will Eddy?s last-ditch defending saved Okehampton on a number of occasions, and Phil Evans fought hard up front, linking well with Scott Ditchburn.
This Saturday home to Countess Wear.
