Match report Bromley Heath v Nicholas Wanderers 01/03/09
Final Score 1 – 2
With a back to back fixture Nicholas Wanderers may well have come along expecting an easy ride after the lack lustre performance of the Bromley Heath boys last week. How wrong could they be? Obviously all the boys had 3 Shredded Wheat for breakfast this week & came out fighting from the start.
Nicholas Wanderers went 1-0 up after about 10 minutes with a well taken goal from Billy Harvey but instead of lying down & letting them forge ahead as they had last week the Bromley boys got stuck in. The defence were getting their tackles in & not allowing the Wanderers forwards to have the free run of last week & it wasn’t long before a pass into the box from Mike found Tommy Brain in the box & who was able to slot the ball past the Wanderers keeper. Nicholas Wanderers kept the pressure on & were able to score a second goal about 20 minutes into the game. 1-2 at half time.
The second half saw both sides with chances & Wanderer’s hit the cross bar while Bromley found numerous ways through the Wanderers defence especially with Joe & Antony up front but their keeper stood firm. Lots of midfield action from both teams in this hard fought game but Bromley were just unable to find that finishing touch for an equaliser & the score remained at 1-2.
Kris, the Bromley manager, had a team to be proud of this week after the frustrations of last week & if the boys stick together & keep playing like this then anything could happen. Re-building a team is never easy but Bromley Heath U.13’s have been through this & are now definitely coming out the other side with a positive outlook & playing for each other & their manager. |
