Hucknall Sports U9's Saturday 0  Toton FC 1

Saturday 19th November 2005

 

Toton perform a smash and grab raid in the dieing minutes to leave Sports ruing squandered opportunities. 

Sports in marvelous form dominated this match right from the first whistle but were unable to turn possession into goals. Sports with some excellent teamwork and a dogged determination left Toton wondering what was happening as time and again they pressed them into their own half. Toton defended hard and went forward when they could but failed to test the Sports keeper during the first half. 

The beginning of the second half saw Toton having a good 5 minute spell forcing an excellent save from the Sports keeper, but Sports turned the pressure up and again forced Toton into defending in numbers but sadly Sports could not find the back of the net. In the dieing minutes Toton hit Sports on the break and fired home on the nearside post to leave Sports lamenting on chances untaken. 

In an excellent team performance the Sports man of the match went to Stephen Whitley, but this was surely 3 points given away by Sports rather than 3 points won by Toton.
