Tividale undone by Walsall Wood

Midland Football League Premier Division

Tividale FC 0 Walsall Wood 2

This was another ground we'd not visited for a while.The previous visit was a couple of seasons ago when Tivi were regularly proving they were too good for this league.

The first ten minutes had the hosts in the ascendency without seriously threatening to score and it took Wood some time to gradually work themselves into the game;from then on the game swung to and fro with both sides enjoying sustained periods of dominance with Tivi coming on strong towards the break without finding an opening.Having said that,the visitors' midfield were in no mood to yield anything.

From the restart Wood were on the front foot and within ten or twelve minutes were two in front with the keeper blameless for both goals.The first took a wicked deflection and I doubt any keeper would have stopped the second,it was that good.Wood then beefed up midfield and try as they might,Tivi were unable to break through.

Another excellent game played in a tremendous spirit;it was a stunning game for us neutrals.
