Ar the match. ..better balance...players dropped deserve too. But Byrne was left to mark smith for the goal....anyone else here the whistle just before our equalisrer
And they get us underway. Konsa falls over - but then we have it from the long one - and Matt Taylor somehow from that long ball has caused us to concede a corner.
Taylor to take now. Decent ball in, Rudd collects though. Counters, and Holmes there, chests to Byrne, nice play, Botaka on the left now and Byrne on the run, uses Botaka, on his right, SHOOTS over the bar. Ooohhhh. Corner. Took a little deflection.
Outswinger, better area, Novak almost but Ulvestad picks up. Down lin to to Botaka, good ball in handball? Free kick given against someone - magennis was fouling O'Toole apparently.
Novak down the line, Tex there first from the clearance, Williams turns and back to Taylor, then to Buchanan who cuts in a goes right to Diamond. Picks it up, chips forward, Tex clears, heads to Crofts, O'Toole gets there - and wins a free kick that was NEVER a foul!
Taylor shoots FK, off Ulvestad, they have, Wylde far post gets it across, cleared from Diamond by Ulvestad and Novak to break, in their half, has support, can't find Holmes inside and Diamond and Taylor combine to clear.
Novak for Magennis - good save by Smith to collect from Novak's cross.
Tex heads away after they get forward, Wylde forces Byrne to clear, poor ball from Buchanan and Byrne clears again - better clearance and Smith does well to nearly get there - our ball throw.
Rudd long GK clears, Ulvestad flicks on, Novak line for Magennis, controls, looks to cross - near post cross cut out by Smith. Long goal kick catches out Tex and Michael Smith can't find Richards there from the ball over the top - should be dealing with that Charlton.
Crofts to Botaka, has it still and back to Crofts, finds Ulvestad lines for Magennis, cuts in, brings forward but good challenge by Diamond they break Wylde - heavy touch - off Byrne but Smith offside.
Ulvestad left to Konsa, Page line Botaka, Page brings forward, back inside to Botaka, and then Diamond can bring it forward after what seemed like a foul. Wylde to go now, crossing - no, hits Byrne and Crofts off Buchanan for our GK.
Adam Smith to take a FK, long diagonal for Smith, no and Botaka - Phillips picks up, takes on Page, gets to the byline but good defending and Page out for a corner. Botaka could've been more involved though.
Declan Rudd goal kick forward to Magennis, Taylor first header, Tex picks up to Crofts, left to Page, touch one Botaka and turns inside, finds Crofts. He finds Ulvestad centre circle, good ball for Magennis but Buchanan and Phillips heads away. Novak SHOOTs ooh just over after Ulvestad intercepted well from a pass toward Taylor.
Page inside to Crofts, finds Ulvestad, ball up to Holmes inside to Crofts, turns Smith, line for Byrne and Crofts there can't find Holmes, Ulvestad, loops up, Magennis and Byrne miscommunicate and Wylde turns inside to Taylor. Williams offside.
GK Novak short to Page, Botaka now turns Phillips, goes to ground, no foul, O'Toole forward for Richards. Headed by Tex, Taylor there, Richards pulls Tex back in the battle and our FK.
