FELIXSTOWE & WALTON 4
HARWICH & PARKESTON 3 aet
23 October 2007


 Robbie May made several changes for tonight's game, Martin Calver going into the back four and both the Chatters brothers coming back into the side with Morley and Bloss in central midfield. Harwich kicked off and setting the pace it was clear that Harwich were not going to roll over like the last time we played Felixstowe a few weeks ago.
Bloss and Morley were controlling midfield, it was not long before Harwich took the lead in 24th minute when Scott Page scored his first goal for Harwich when he drilled the ball past the home keeper.  Harwich just controlled the game  with some great team work and it was not long before Harwich were two up with another goal from Page in the 43rd minute. Felixstowe could not break down the Harwich defence, Calver and Matson were outstanding,  half time 2-0

 Second half kicked off with Harwich setting the same pace again but could not put the ball in the back of the net.  Felixstowe made two changes and Harwich were made to pay for not scoring some clear cut chances, in the 87th minute Felixstowe pulled one back and then levelled on 90 minutes so taking the game into extra time.
Two further goals from Felixstowe in the first half meant Calver was pushed upfront to try and pull something back from this game, in the last few moments of extra time Underwood at long last pulled one back for Harwich but it was to late Felixstowe 4 -Harwich 3.
We must take some positives from this game at times Harwich really played some great football with Underwood and Page playing some good football up front if they can keep playing together they will be a force to be reckon with Morley & Bloss combined well in midfield and Matson & Claver controlled central defence come on you boys start believing in yourself and we will get there.
