Shifnal in a goal-fest.

West Midlands Regional League  Premier division

Shifnal Town v Black Country Rangers

This was certainly a change from last weeks' game watched in blazing Spring sunshine.It was COLD, but when you are addicted to Proper Football,what can you do ?

For the first 20-25 minutes the visitors were camped in Shifnals' half and the only question was 'how many are they going  to score?' I've said many times before via this blog, teams have to score when they're  on top and although Rangers were running the game,scoring opportunities were at a premium.They did eventually take the lead with an well-taken goal which seemed to be the wake-up call Town needed and it was only a matter of minutes before Town levelled. Two minutes later Town took the lead with a 25 yard screamer.

Half-time ; Shifnal Town 2 BCR 1

The visitors levelled  within minutes of the restart but Town are made of stronger stuff these days and before too long,had raced into a 5-2 lead including a flying header which would match anything Rooney could do. The visitors did get a third but to be honest they'd had the stuffing knocked out of them.

Result ; Shifnal Town 5 Black Country Rangers 3

MOTM ; Shifnal No 7
MOTM ; BCR No 10
