Bourne Town 5 v Earls Barton 3
20th September 2008 |
|
After 2 hours on the road we finally arrived at Bourne Town (Road Works/Road Closures/diversions, having to wait for trains at level crossings did not make for a pleasurable trip. With very little time to warm up and stiff limbs after sitting for so long in the cars Barton took a time to get going. In that 20 minute period Bourne had scored 3 goals and Barton now had a battle on their hands to get back into the game. We kept the score at 3-0 til half time, when we were able to reshuffle the pack and start again in the second half. Bourne scored a further 2 goals quite soon after the break but Barton were not going to give in and a goal on 52 minutes from Megan Watkins lifted the spirits of the team. Kelly Hewitt made it 5-2 on 68 minutes and 3 minutes later Megan scored her second to make it very interesting for the last 9 minutes of the game. Barton's player of the match today Mel McIvor who ran her socks off on the right wing. |
