Old Wulfrunians superb comeback

West Midland Regional League Division 2

Old Wulfrunians 3  Red Star Alma 2

If ever proof were needed that you don't need to watch professional football to see a good game,this was it.Two evenly-matched teams putting everything into it to win.The hosts probably couldn't quite believe it when after half an hour they were two goals down,their keeper touching the ball just twice - to retrieve the ball from the back of the net.Both goals were preventable;one from a free-kick and one from a defensive error.On it went,Wulfrunians putting everything into attack,RSA doing their best to stop them.Plenty of 'blood & guts' tackling and some nice one-touch stuff from both teams.Come the second half and things began to change as the hosts pulled a goal back after 10 minutes and could have equalized from the spot,their penalty being superbly saved by the RSA keeper.To be fair,Wulfrunians were seeing a lot more of the ball and it was no surprise really when the levelled.To put the icing on the cake and crown a superb come-back,the hosts got a winner near the end.
This was a good game to watch,played in good spirit and nobody fell as though they'd been shot.Well done to all concerned.
