Southampton Reserves 1 Chelsea Reserves 1
Tuesday, Aug 30, 2005
The first goal and the first point of the season came for Chelsea
Reserves at St. Mary’s Stadium but a momentary lapse in concentration
prevented a snatched win against the balance of play.
Jimmy Smith scored the Chelsea goal, an effort for which he should be
proud, and coach Mick McGiven will be pleased with an all-round improved
showing from the home defeat by Spurs a fortnight ago. The first-half was
very much a case of smash and grab by Chelsea, the 1-0 lead a good return
for two genuine chances.
Over half the Southampton side fielded possessed first team experience
and they succeeded in shutting out their opponents for most of the opening
period. But although Chelsea’s young guns conceded a lot of possession,
they found themselves by no means over-run.
It took until 20 minutes for the first shot in anger at either end,
Saints’ Nathan Dyer playing a ball through for Dexter Blackstock to fire
comfortably wide.
Then out of the blue, Chelsea scored. There looked little danger when
Joe Tillen’s throw-in was returned to him but he expertly threaded a pass
through the home rearguard to where Jimmy Smith had burst forward from
midfield. Smith took the ball down with his right, and on the volley
flashed it inside the near-post with his left. It was a goal of fine
technique.
A spell of Southampton pressure, aided by some scrappy Chelsea
defending culminated in the ball hitting the post. A throw from the right
was allowed by under-pressure Pettigrew to bounce over his head. David
McGoldrick was onto it quickly but his touch hit the post with Pidgeley
beaten.
McGoldrick tried his luck from 25 yards further out minutes later
having beaten Grant to a loose ball, his shot a worthy effort but wide.
Then a misplaced pass back from Cranie gave Chelsea central striker Phil
Younghusband his first sight of goal. It was a very presentable chance but
opting for power, he drove it wide of the far post.
Jimmy Smith was booked for scything down McGoldrick close on the
break. There was a moment of concern soon after the restart when Pidgeley
spilled a low cross but the Chelsea keeper was brave to reclaim it at the
feet of Delap. Dean Smith then became the second Chelsea caution for a
second ill-disciplined challenge in quick succession.
Instantly Southampton’s Mills followed into the book for bringing
down Danny Hollands. There was a more confident approach from Chelsea in
the second-half; more zip in the midfield play. That makes the manner in
which the equaliser was conceded all the more disappointing.
It was a simple punt forward by the goalkeeper that caused all the
problems when it was allowed to bounce through to McGoldrick. He had evaded
the Chelsea central defence and this time the Saints’ most dangerous
player slammed the ball past Pidgeley. It was a lesson for Chelsea’s
youngsters.
There was hope for a late winner when Mancienne and Morais rapidly
moved the ball straight down the middle of the park but Morais’ ball
through to Phil Younghusband was a touch too strong.
Southampton finished strongly with four successive corners followed by
a scare when substitute Lallana had two bites at the cherry. Pidgeley beat
out his first shot, the second landed on the roof of the net.
Deep into the three minutes stoppage time, Pidgeley with his finest
contribution to the game kept out a superbly struck far-post volley from
Dyer. The 3,944 crowd were to be denied a home side victory.

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。
