Another fantastic match with some very big positives and a few things to be worked on.
Cumnor yet again started brightly, and were passing the ball around nicely at the start of the match. The continued pressure allowed Cumnor to eventually break the deadlock with Louie getting yet another to add to his account. After that, Cumnor continued to play well, and were finding opportunities easy to come by, but difficult to finish, while Launton had only fleeting sight of goal.
The half time re-shuffle bought immediate results, with Cumnor letting in two goals within the first few minutes of the half. However this week a major positive was the way the team kept their heads, and over the next 10 minutes, they worked hard to get back in the game, and eventually Louie got his second. With Cumnor still having the better of the game and only 3 minutes to go, Guy broke free, and a speculative shot ended up in the back of the net.
With only a minute to go it looked like Cumnor had snatched the game, but unfortunately cruel fate stepped in again, and a loose ball in the Cumnor box, eventually found the back of the net.
Man of the match was Charlie for some great skill and effort, strong challenges and good crosses. Special mention also goes to Daniel for his outstanding performance in the first half where he played the left back position with great skill and judgement. And of course Joel got a goal in the second match. Well done.
