07/10/23 : Mens Veterans (Bees) vs Salisbury Strollers

Home - Burnaby Road P1

League

Lost 2 - 3

As they say, a game of two halfs!

Another very warm October Saturday and  the game started with plenty of possession and chances created.  Following a fine run from Glyn into the 23 and then down the byeline to the second goal area he pulled the ball back for Gooba to score.  Salisbury used the long ball to break but were kept out.  Following more pressue a penalty corner was won which Glyn put in the bottom roight hand corner.  Salisbury forced a penalty corner just before half time and scroed with a dipping PC which just caught the top of the backboard.  2 - 1 at half time.

In the second half Havant didn't enjoy so much possession or pressure & Salisbury came into it more.  Firstly a PC not cleared enabled them to score on the second shot and then only a couple of minutes later, from a quick break, they took the lead with a backhand chance.

The game ebbed and flowed right to the end but Salisbury held on to claim the points.

Afterwards back to the clubhouse for another great curry team tea, enjoyed by all thank you.
