1st Team Results
1st Team 3 - 3 Heathens
Venue: Home
Referee:
A well deserved and hard fought point.
We had 6 new players filling in for us in a very depleted squad. This showed in the opening 25 minutes when a very capable Heathens side over ran us.
They took the lead and we struggled to string a few passes to together. But we worked hard and started to find a rhythm. The game ebbed and flowed with Egbertians taking the lead to make it 2-1. Heathens pulled a goal back to draw level at 2-2. We then took the lead again in the final minute of the game.
From the kick off a long ball saw our keeper clattered by their striker resulting in a 4 inch gash in his head and the referee awarding a penalty - I kid you not! One of the worst decisions I've ever seen given.
Heathens equalised from the last kick of the game to avoid a 'smash and grab' by us. On the face of it we were lucky to come away with a point as Heathens were the strong and more balanced side. Heppy kept us in the game on a more than a few occasions.
Glad to get a point on the board!
