We came up against a very good Hykeham Tigers team who we have played twice already in the last few months and lost on both occasions. We started well and created a number of chances without scoring. Eventually we managed to take one of our opportunities and took a deserved 1-0 lead. We switched off twice in the last 5 mins to coincide 2 identical goals which were both avoidable. So after having the better of the 1st half we found ourselves 2-1 down. The boys were sent out in the 2nd half to get their heads up and work hard for each other and they can get something out of the game. Unfortunately we ended up going dowm to 10 players early in the 2nd half which made the task of getting back into the game extremely hard. With a free kick just inside the opposition half up stepped Ollie Broomhead to strike a fantastic shot into the roof of the net. After getting level we rode our luck a bit but the overall work rate from the team was fantastic, they left everything on the pitch. The 2nd half wasn't pretty but the boys dug in and got a deserved point. Goal scorers Oscar Bradshaw and Ollie Broomhead MOTM Charlie Wood
