EARLS BARTON UNITED FOOTBALL CLUB

Earls Barton 1 v Moulton Fields 4

15th March 2008

Once again it was a match of two halves. Moulton Fields winning the first half 4-0 and Barton winning the second half 1-0.

Moulton took an early lead after just 4 minutes, their keeper's long kick flying over the Barton defence for their forwards to race onto and score.
Unfortunately the Barton defence did not learn how to cope with it until after the half-time team talk, by this time it was too late and the visitors were already 4-0 up. Barton created one or two chances themselves in the first half but were not able to convert them.

After the break, with a little jigging around of the team, Barton put on more of a contest, Kelly Hewitt scoring Barton's only goal after good work between her and Emily Baldry. Barton plugged away and tried to reduce the arrears more, player of the match Megan Watkins coming close on a couple of occasions.
