EBOG 2 1 SOUTHGATE COUNTY ( Tyler )<br>Any one
who either played or watched this game would come to
the same conclusion - how did Southgate not win?<br>
After a dodgy 15 minutes, County settled down to play a
slick passing game against the more straightforward
approach. Good passing and movement opened up the EBOG
defence on numerous occasions, only to be thwarted by a
keeper who was having a blinder. Stones and Tyler
(twice) had good chances, only to either see the keeper
make brilliant saves or not execute the finish to some
good approach play. Then a minute before half time -
the sucker punch and County turned around 1-0 down.
<br>The second half followed much the same pattern as the
first, with Anderson and Brady controlling midfield only
for poor finishing to thwart some good attacking
play. Indeed within a minute of the restart County’s’
best chance was not taken (sorry Peter). With county
looking likely to score every time they attacked some
rough justice was dealt out when EBOGs scored from one
of their few chances. Tyler scored a late goal with
a scuffled shot (the only way that the keeper was
likely to be beaten), to make the final score 2 -1 to
EBOGs. Impressive performances from Brady, Anderson and
Peter (what is your surname?), whose pace was
frightening.
