Outerbridge & Maidstone United Academy Secure Crucial Victory
IslandStats.com
Bermudian youngster Noah Outerbridge and his Maidstone United Academy teammates earned a disciplined 2-0 victory against Eastleigh Academy at the Gallagher Stadium.
In what has been described as a transitional season for the Stones' youth setup, the result provides a vital boost as the squad looks to climb the National League Football Academy South Division table. Following a historic treble-winning campaign last year, the academy is currently navigating a period of restructuring while maintaining its reputation as a premier breeding ground for young talent.
The victory marks a positive turn for Outerbridge, who has recently worked his way back into the side following an injury setback during a high-scoring encounter against Southend earlier in the season. His presence helped provide the stability needed to secure the clean sheet and the three points at home.
Maidstone demonstrated clinical efficiency throughout the contest, fending off a resilient Eastleigh side that has been pushing for play-off contention in their respective divisions. The Stones will now look to carry this momentum into a busy winter schedule as they aim to return to the summit of the academy ranks.
