CWU 9 Lingfield 2

 

Something of a bonkers afternoon, with a strip of frost down one side of the pitch making it a pleasure to see a game at all.

 

Although three up after half an hour, Wood didn't have everything their own way and Lingfield's goal in reply just made the thought that the game wasn't done and dusted enter heads.

 

A goal crazy second half saw Wood open up Lingfield's beleaguered rearguard time and again, although the visitors' second goal to make it 8-2 may well have been the best of the lot.

 

9-2, that's about 35p a goal...can't be bad!

Wood's Mario Embalo bagged a 5 minute hat trick in the second half and ended the game with 5 goals to his name! Lingfield's defence non-existent at times. Was expecting a close game too!

' Non existent ' is a very gentle way of putting it. Thought the visitors generally had a decent attitude though, as days like that aren't easy.

Did Lingfield play an incredibly high line this afternoon?

They did a lot against us on Tuesday in the SSC and after the game I thought they'd get hurt against CWU if they did that as Embalo is quick and powerful.

Looks like I may have been right!

They certainly tried to play high up the park, but they were up against quick and savvy opposition who gave them a torrid time.
