football rambles

 So, I moved into Downham at 2 and was down the football by 3. I had seen some good games down here on the odd occasions that I have been here over the season, but this wasn't really one of them. Downham have a cup final coming up and neither team has much at stake as we come towards the end of the season. Downham were probably the better team in the second half, but neither team fashioned any convincing chances before halftime.  Downham came out in the second half with more attempt and took the lead through Artur Visocanskis early in the half. However, they were undone by 2 goals in quick succession by Asa McGeachy and Nathan Russell.

 The last time I went to Ely City a couple of weeks ago it was an entertaining game and this game didn't disappoint either - even if the result did. Like in the game against Lakenheath things didn't start too well for Ely with them going in at the break 2-0 down. When they had a chance at some retribution when rewarded a penalty a feeble Jack Friend shot was easily saved by the Harleston keeper. Ely came out as a different team in the second half and Luke Mansfield soon pulled a goal back. Towards the end Ely were awarded another penalty. This time Charlie Tunnel stepped up and he didn't miss. There were only a few minutes left on the clock and Ely pushed for a winner. However, they were caught out and Harleston got a winner on the break.
