The BlueWater Jr. Blaze U-11 Premier Team looked to move up the standings with a home game against the London City Gunners White, Monday June 11.
 

BlueWater struck in the first minute when Daniel Vallee pressured the Gunners defender. The defender surrendered the ball and Vallee deftly drilled a high shot into the top of the net for an early lead.

BlueWater continued to press and won a corner kick. Jenelle Labadie was first to the ball and found Dilly Ohuegbe who lifted the ball just over the cross bar to keep the score at 1-0 BlueWater.

BlueWater was playing the match short handed with the recent injuries to forward Steven Taylor and goal keeper Mario Hudson.
 

London received a boost when confusion in the BlueWater defence allowed a 2 on 0 break. The London forward made no mistake and beat fill in goalie Jordan Walsh to tie the score.

London was awarded an Indirect free kick outside the Blaze 18 yard box. The kick sailed into the BlueWater box and found the head of a Gunner winger to give the London squad a 2-1 lead.

BlueWater carried most of the play but found themselves down a goal. Dilly Ohuegbe the BlueWater striker decided to take things into his own hands. Ohuegbe had been giving the Gunners defence fits with his speed all half. Dilly won the ball on his own side of half. The Sweeper challenged and overplayed allowing Dilly to punch the ball past him and have a clear path to the net from Mid Field. A sprinting Ohuegbe made no mistake knotting the game at 2 with cheers from the home crowd.

Dilly again made a big run beating the Gunner's defence but his left footed attempt was drilled into the goalies chest for a save.
 

BlueWater continued to control the game and were awarded a corner just before half. Nicolas VanBilsen drifted the ball over the throng and Dylan Wardell making a run was able to get a shot after a quick hop of the ball but the Gunner's Keeper was there to make the save. 2-2 at half.
 

The second half started much the same as the first. Dilly again beat the half back and was off to the races, however his shot sailed just wide of the post.

Matthew Cservik then found Jordan Walsh (who had now relinquished goal to Marcus Dusseault) with a quick pass through the London defence. Walsh deked the sweeper and continued inside the 6 yard box but his shot was saved by a diving London netminder!

London forced the ball down the field and were awarded a corner kick. BlueWater was unable to gain control and clear to safety. The ball was won by the Gunner's who sent the ball into the middle of the BlueWater defence. The Gunner forward controlled the ball and was allowed to turn firing a shot into the top corner of the net over Dusseault. 3-2 Gunners White.

With the referee looking at her watch BlueWater knew time was dwindling and moved their defenders well up into the London City half. A nice pass to Walsh allowed the BlueWater forward to break in alone on the London keeper, however as he attempted a shot the Sweeper pushed the forward causing the ball to go harmlessly wide. With less than a minute to play BlueWater was awarded a corner. VanBilsen crossed the ball into the centre of the box and a Blaze player headed the ball towards the London net only to be denied by the keeper. The referee blew the whistle and BlueWater had suffered a heartbreaking loss to fall to 1-5-1 on the season.

BlueWater next travel to Kitchener to tackle the first place Kitchener Spirit.
