Kent Merit Under-15 Boys Cup Final: Bromley 2 Maidstone United 0 aet

There was, perhaps, little surprise that Bromley and Maidstone cancelled each other out during the 80 minutes of normal time as the two sides had met only seven days earlier in the league.

It was down to some expert goalkeeping at either end coupled with wayward finishing that meant the final at Sheppey’s Holm Park needed extra-time to find a winner.

The dangerous Ashley Tshitenga made the breakthrough at the end of the first period of extra-time, a second goal arriving in stoppage-time of the second period through Kian Downey.

Bromley manager Matt Griffiths changed formation for extra-time and it worked.

“It was a game of two halves, Maidstone really came at us in the first half when we were against the weather so to come in at 0-0 was a bit of an achievement.

“Second half we were superb and just couldn’t put the ball in the back of the net.

“We changed our system. When we played them last week we were 1-0 down at half-time so went to three at the back and ended up winning 4-1. That scoreline didn’t reflect how good a side Maidstone are, though.

“We made that change again. We’ve only played it for 45 minutes before today but we did it again and it really paid off.

“We said to Ashley that there will be a moment when you can put the ball in the net. He’s a prolific finisher, he just lacked that little bit in normal time but in extra-time he did his job.”

First-half chances were at a premium, although player-of-the-match George Hill in the Bromley goal produced a fantastic save to keep out Sonny Jackson’s header from a right-wing free-kick.

Akshar Santhosh dragged his shot wide for the Stones before Hill comfortably gathered Ollie South’s long-range attempt.
