First Team Match Report - Saturday 22nd December 2007

MSFL - Division 2

Ashurst Wood 2 - 2 Ardingly  

by Dave Port

 

Took the lead in the 3rd minute with Dave Williamson slamming the ball into the roof of the net from close in direct from a throw in by Matt Wiles. After half an hour Andy Majcher won a penalty. His speedy elusiveness resulted in him being tripped just inside the area. Neil calmly sent the keeper the wrong way from the spot.  Approaching half time Mike Sinfield made his only mistake of the game and allowed their best forward to spin around him and make an excellent low cross from the bye line which was easily converted.
After 20 minutes of the second half the new manager Matt Wright made a tactical substitution replacing Neil with aka Dan Rush. With 15 minutes to go Andy Majcher succumbed to cramp and was replace by Matt Wright. 10 minutes from time we failed to mark up properly from a throw in, Ashurstwood passed the ball back to an unmarked thrower who drilled in a cross that was converted despite Toby getting half a hand on it.
2-2 was a fair result.
