Checkatrade Trophy report: Plymouth 2 Chelsea 2 (5-4 on pens)
Tue 15 Aug 2017
Our development squad picked up a point in the Checkatrade Trophy at Home
Park this evening (Tuesday) but were denied all three by a late fightback
from League One Plymouth.
Joe Edwards's side competed manfully throughout against their senior
opposition and took their chances in the second half to open up a two-goal
advantage. Callum Hudson-Odoi, the youngest player on the field at 16
years-old, bagged a brace after the interval, his maiden goals at the
development squad age group.
However, the home side scored twice in the final few minutes through
striker Alex Fletcher and then won the bonus penalty shootout to gain an
additional group point.
Edwards made three changes from the 0-0 draw that opened our PL2 campaign
away at Manchester City last week as Cole Dasilva, Luke McCormick and
Martell Taylor-Crossdale came into our all-teenage side.
Taylor-Crossdale led the line up front supported by Dujon Sterling, Isaac
Christie-Davies and Hudson-Odoi, while McCormick anchored in midfield
alongside skipper Ruben Sammut. Dasilva lined up at left-back, the same
position his on-loan older brother Jay had played against the Pilgrims
three days previously for Charlton, while Reece James, Joseph Colley and
Ethan Ampadu comprised the remainder of the back four in front of keeper
Jamie Cumming.
Plymouth, runners-up in League Two last season, started with an average
age just over 25 years-old but the visitors settled quickly and
confidently on the ball in the early stages. Sammut denied Ruben Lameiras
with a good block on the edge of the box while Ampadu headed clear Lionel
Ainsworth's set-piece delivery from the right as Edwards's side defended
well from the start.
They threatened themselves as Christie-Davies swung in a cross towards
Sterling at the far post but left-back Aaron Taylor-Sinclair did well to
head clear under pressure. Operating in an altered 4-2-3-1 system,
Edwards's side pressed intently from the front and were able to cut the
Plymouth supply line high up the field.
The predominant threat from the hosts was the aerial delivery into the
18-yard box and Ainsworth might have done better with a header at the back
post that dropped wide before Colley headed clear a centre stood up into
the middle by Gregg Wylde.
Down the other end, our endeavours were providing some encouraging signs.
Hudson-Odoi's deflected free-kick ricocheted behind but Swedish defender
Colley could not test Robbert te Loeke in the Plymouth goal with his
strike from McCormick's low corner.
James twice threatened with inviting crosses from the right, the latter a
low delivery that was cleared behind by the well-positioned Yann Songo'o
before the Pilgrims had the best opportunities of the half to open the
scoring. Their advance down the right paid dividends and Cumming made a
smart stop to thwart Fletcher before Lameiras hit the post with the
rebound.
Loose play at the back almost handed the Blues an early opportunity after
the restart but the ball just spun away from the hopeful McCormick before
Plymouth enjoyed a strong spell. Lameiras's pass for Ainsworth was taken
with an excellent first touch by the forward but his low shot was drilled
straight at Cumming before Songo'o headed narrowly over.
However, the defender was guilty of sloppy play in defence in the build-up
to the game's opening goal after 62 minutes. He stumbled in possession and
allowed Hudson-Odoi, recently deployed as the central striker following
Taylor-Crossdale's withdrawal, the opportunity to advance towards goal.
The 16-year-old's eyes widened as he bore down on goal and he kept his
composure to finish beyond the goalkeeper for his first goal at this age
group.
The visitors were buoyed by the advantage and Hudson-Odoi skipped away
from a challenge before teeing up Christie-Davies, whose effort was
blocked. The youngest player on the field then had another great chance,
again aided by slack Plymouth play in possession, and rounded the keeper
before placing his left-footed shot over the crossbar with the goal
gaping.
Yet the England Under-17 international did not ponder on that missed
chance for long. Substitute Jacob Maddox was shoved to the ground and
Hudson-Odoi stepped up to curl a precise free-kick into the bottom corner
in front of the celebrating Chelsea supporters.
It looked for a long period like the advantage would earn us our first
three points in the competition but Plymouth striker Fletcher had other
ideas. He halved the lead two minutes before the end of regulation time
with a close-range finish, latching on to the loose ball after Cumming had
palmed away a shot across goal by Lameiras.
With the pressure cranked up a notch and the decibel levels rising,
Fletcher struck again in stoppage time with a well-hit volley on the spin
that flew past Cumming and ensured the contest would end in a penalty
shootout for an additional group point. McCormick, Muheim, Christie-Davies
and Colley all converted but Maddox's effort struck the base of the post
and bounced away as the hosts claimed a 5-4 shootout win and two group
points.

Checkatrade Trophy reaction: Unique experiences
Wed 16 Aug 2017
Our development squad picked up a point in their opening game of this
term's Checkatrade Trophy campaign away at Plymouth Argyle last night,
although were denied all three by a late fightback from the League One
Pilgrims.
16-year-old forward Callum Hudson-Odoi had netted twice in the second half
to hand us a two-goal advantage before Argyle's young striker Alex
Fletcher came off the bench to bag a brace in the dying minutes. The
contest at Home Park was decided by a penalty shootout in which the home
side triumphed 5-4 to secure an additional group point.
However, the performance from the young Blues was an impressive one given
the gulf in experience and age between the two sides. Joe Edwards's boys
competed manfully in the physical side of the game while also imposing
their technical quality on proceedings, with their intensity in pressing
from the front a particular feature.
Afterwards, Edwards reflected on a tough test and a deflated dressing room
but claimed his players could take pride in their performance against
senior opponents.
'We've been looking forward to this competition and this game because it's
a big test and that's exactly what our players need,' the 30-year-old said
after the game. 'It's the final step in the pathway our players go through
with us before a lot of them experience a loan move and some of them may
head out to League One so it's exactly the sort of game we want them to
experience.
'It was a tough test but we coped really well. We spoke before the game
with the lads and they were disappointed not to win a game in the
competition last season so we made it a bit of an early goal for ourselves
this year. We were nearly there so it's a deflated dressing room but my
job as coach is now to pick them up and dust them down because they should
be proud of their performance. As a team of teenagers against a team full
of players in their mid-20s, they gave a great account of themselves.'
Creating unique experiences for young players is the primary objective of
inviting development teams to participate in the competition and Edwards
felt the backs-to-the-wall conclusion to the contest was particularly
eye-opening for his team.
'The character we showed to play away from home in front of a crowd and
still push to win the game was probably the most pleasing thing of the
night for me,' he continued. 'The crowd really told at the end when
Plymouth started mounting pressure and brought a few first team players
off the bench. When that noise starts generating against you, the waves of
attacks start coming and the balls are heading into the box, that's
exactly what our boys need to experience.
'We're trying to add that side of the game to our training programme more
often, teaching them about the aerial side of the game as well as the
technical stuff to get them best prepared for senior football but you just
can't recreate the last five minutes of that game. I told the lads
afterwards that we've got two more games in the competition and hopefully
we'll be stronger for having experienced that killer blow in the final few
minutes.'
The manager admitted his game plan was not to alter the team's style too
much but play to their strengths and operate with maturity and
intelligence in possession. He was pleased with how well the players
carried out those instructions and felt he learned some valuable lessons
about those in his dressing room.
'We're a team that likes to press so the last thing we wanted to do was
come into the game and start dropping off to show respect to Plymouth
because that would invite problems that I don't think we're as suited to
cope with. In possession of the ball, we knew we had to be patient and
calm and at times we looked so assured and mature on the ball for such a
young team.
'When you go on loan to a League One club, you're one or two teenagers
among a team which makes it easier but the really tough thing about this
competition is when you're 11 teenagers playing against 11 players in
their mid-20s. That makes it far more difficult but the lads impressed me
tonight. I've known some of the boys for many years but you still don't
know how they're going to cope in that situation until you put them in it.
I'm sure the taste of it will give them the drive to keep working.'

當我漫遊在斯坦弗森林時，我看見了雀爾西，米爾斯的女兒，在傍晚初升的明月中，
在泰晤士河旁一處林地空間上翩然舞蹈。所有痛苦的記憶都離開了我，我像落入迷離
幻境中一般，因為雀爾西是伊露維塔兒女中最美的一位。她身上那襲藍色的衣裳宛如
萬里無雲的晴空，她灰色的眼睛像是傍晚群星閃爍的天空；她的斗篷上繡著金色的花
朵，她的頭髮漆黑如暮色中的陰影。她的榮光與美好，就像樹葉上的光芒，像是潺潺
流水，像是這迷離世界上方閃爍的繁星；她臉上有閃亮的光輝。
