Match Report - Black Country Rangers 1 Withymoor West 2
Saw BCR travel to Withymoor West for a merit shield game. This was always a tough match as Withy South are a strong team in our division. The first half was very poor by BCR, and a sloppy goal conceded meant we were 1 nil down at half time. A much better second half when we passed and played well, possession wise we where all over withymoor, but couldn’t get that break through goal as they defended very well. We hit the crossbar, their keeper pulled of two finger tip saves, and few headers went just over, a few shots just wide. Then Scott Davies fired in a corner that swung straight in, a great goal 1-1. this seemed to be a good spark as both teams started playing good football and battling well. We were pushing for the winner , and got caught on the break, we allowed to much time and a winning goal was scored by Withymoor, rough justice for the afternoons work, I think a draw would have been a fair result. Goal by Scott Davies
