King's Lynn Town 0 Alfreton Town 2
Well, things are looking to be going from bad to worse at the Walks where King's Lynn went down to bottom team on Saturday.
After starting the season with some exciting striker options, King's Lynn are now short up front and lacked anything resembling clinical up front. The first half saw very few chances for either side with a chance for the home side on 11 minutes from Adam Marriot being a rare opportunity. The first shot was saved and then the second was cleared off the line. King's Lynn did most of the attacking in the half, but the only other real chance fell to Alfreton on the 34th minute.
The second half started off in controversy when Adam Marriot back heeled the ball into the goal to give King's Lynn the lead. However, the linesman said the ball hadn't gone over the line. It definitely had. This was also the turning point in the game as Lynn seemed to go to pieces and Alfreton grew in confidence. The visitor's biggest threat seemed to come from set pieces and it was indeed a long throw that eluded everyone including Chapman in Lynn's goal allowing Josh Ayers to head home.
Sean Sealey replaced Marriot as the Linnets tried to force a goal. committing players forward can often leave teams exposed though and this was the case. Ayers and Lingendza found themselves in a 2 on 1 situation and Lingendza slotted home to give the Reds 3 points to take back to Derbyshire with them.
