[player_box id=43217 leftright=right]For the U-17/18s, Samson Sergi‘s 34th minute goal would prove to be enough as goalkeeper Clay Thomas and the Olney [player_box id=47453 leftright=right]back line worked hard to earn the clean sheet. Defenders Wielfried Zouantcha, Alex La Noire, Sassan Zarei and Timothy Ekpone each played the full 90 minutes in the shutout victory, while Sergi’s goal was his ninth of the season.
