A Bernardo Rosa hat-trick sealed a perfect opening day win for West Ham United’s U18s on Saturday as they were 4-1 winners over Norwich City in the Premier League U18 division.

The Brazilian gave the Hammers the lead in the first half before Veron Parkes added another early in the second half.

The Canaries pulled one back to make a game of it, but two penalties dispatched by Rosa himself put the visitors out of sight and secured three points for the new duo of coaches – Jack Collison and Mark Phillips – in the dugout.

The Hammers ensured their record remained at 100 per cent thanks to goals from Emmanuel Longelo, Veron Parkes and Sebastian Nebyla in the 3-2 win over Southampton. The Hammers had plenty of confidence but fell behind on 17 minutes when the Saints’ Christian Norton put them in front. With nine minutes left of the first half, the Hammers equalised. A driving run from Ajibola Alese pushed Southampton back before the defender’s pass found the run of Longelo, whose first effort was blocked before the youngster bagged at the second attempt to make it 1-1. Just before the half time whistle, Jack Collison and Steve Potts’ side went in front. A long throw-in from Will Greenidge was flicked into the path of Parkes, who, drifting inside the pitch from the left, fired a wicked shot back across the keeper inside the near post from 20 yards.

Southampton came back out in the second half raring to go and it was all square again just before the hour mark when Kayne Ramsey found the net. But with just the Hammers pushing, a slice of luck came with just five minutes left on the clock and with it, the winner. Parkes, dangerous throughout, once again drifted inside and unleashed a stinging drive which struck Nebyla on the back and deflected in.

West Ham United U18s’ 100 per cent record came to an end as Aston Villa broke Hammers’ hearts with two minutes remaining in the Midlands. Winger Colin Odutayo was the hero for the hosts, finishing off a late counter attack to put an end to Mark Phillips and Jack Collison’s team’s perfect start. West Ham had the first chance early on when after just seven minutes both centre-backs Josh Okotcha and Ajibola Alese could have scored during the same move.  A Sebastian Nebyla free-kick was swung in and Okotcha’s shot was saved before Alese blazed over from the resulting rebound. The Hammers remained on top throughout the first half and tested the Villa keeper Viljami Sinisalo for the first time seven minutes before the break. A stinging shot by joint top-scorer Veron Parkes saw the Finnish stopper dive high to his right, pushing the effort away to keep the scoreline goalless.

In the second period, West Ham continued to control the match as Louie Watson came on to bolster the middle of the park, but their dominance in possession could not be converted into goals. And with two minutes left on the clock, that frustration was multiplied as Villa struck the first and very late blow.

Manager: Mark Phillips and Jack Collison

West Ham United U18s’ blistering start to the 2018/19 campaign continued as they thrashed London rivals Fulham 4-1 at Little Heath.

Veron Parkes grabbed his third and fourth goals of what has already been an impressive first season as a scholar before Emmanuel Longelo added a second to his season tally. Sean Adarkwa – who was prolific for the Hammers during pre-season – scored the side’s fourth.

Fulham’s Jean-Pierre Tiehi did bag for the visitors to make it 2-1, but Jack Collison and Mark Phillips’ team were too strong throughout the clash in east London.
