UEA 2's Keep the dream alive


Mixed results for UEA yesterday as the twos won but the !sts lost away to Oxford University.

A lack of availability led to an unfortunate 4-0 loss away to Oxford University 1sts. A few mistakes and some good individual play led to the goals.
Tom Denney picked up the man of the match award but only got 5 bonus points because he picked up a booking, his second of the season (naughty naughty Denney)


The seconds kept up the contention for the league with a hard fought away win against Bedford 3rds. A match which could only be described as a war was set alight in the 65th minute when Liam Martin flicked on a Jonny Richardson throw in, into the path of Sammy Gilliland, he half volleyed from 10 yards onto the post and in. 5 minutes later an error at the back allowed Nick Gaskell to control the ball and lay in Tom Thornton, he placed the ball passed the keeper but the ball hit the post and trickled over the line.
Pete Bellamy and Jason Lincoln rose off the bench superbly and some great challenges from Bellamy and some good hold play from Lincoln kept the ball away from Bedford.
Sammy G very much so deserved the star man award earning him a nice 10 point bonus.
