Overall a good performance on Saturday, especially considering our lack of competitive football recently, in what was a very competitive match against one of the stronger teams in the league.
We made a really good start to the game and deservedly went ahead with a brilliantly worked goal; Zak Burnard made an intelligent overlapping run down the right wing and was played in by Zak WD's perfectly timed pass before driving in a low cross for Alfie to instinctively tap home.
We continued to play the better football creating more chances and were unfortunate not to go further ahead before half time. In the second half with the wind behind them Heavitree pressed more but some excellent defending kept them at bay until 5 minutes from the final whistle when a close range shot found it's way in through a busy 6 yard box to earn them a draw.
There were several candidates for Man of the Match but it goes to Zac Burnard for working tirelessly as ever in midfield and producing some great link up play including the excellent goal assist.
Thanks to Luke for stepping into centre back last minute and putting in a really solid performance.
Well done lads and see you at training later.
Jon
