Enfield 1 Hx 1 (Enfield win on penalties 9-8)

[cup of tea]

FA Trophy jinx happens again! Oh well. Thought we had a decent first half, more even second half but even then we had a lot of possession in the final third. Our problem , apart from the goal was either the final ball in or getting the forward players into position for the final ball. When we did get it right it was more like half chances. some positives out of it, new forward looks really useful, took his goal well, get him completely match fit and that’s a useful addition for however long it lasts. To be honest a second goal before half time would have made it difficult for Enfield to come back. 

Enfield were determined, kept going for the whole match and in some areas we failed to match their physicality, something that Daryl and the team won’t allow next time. They unfortunately did deserve their goal. 
 

It’s a shame , but there’s lessons to be learned from this for next time which isn’t too far away. Out of the fa trophy again on pens but we move on COYU

Fun fact the last time we won a game in this trophy was at Wembley. We seem to be playing good football but we fall short when it comes to putting the ball in the net. Nashy i feel is trying too hard as the last two seasons the shot he had today would have gone in no problem sorry to single him out because he is a great player and this is a team game and we have a great team COYU

I thought this was the best i have seen in the first 45. HH is a quality player, so I hope we can keep him for a while longer than the month loan. HH seemed to give the rest of the team the belief to press higher but that second goal just never materialised. Good game. pens are a lottery, good luck to ET in the next round.
