Excellent grass-roots entertainment

 28/08/21

                   ⚽Midland Football League  Div 1⚽           

 The Guardian Warehousing Arena


Dudley Town 3  Coventry Copsewood 2


This was without doubt, a fantastic advert for grass-roots football; two evenly matched teams serving up a brilliant game.

Dudley(DT) were the 1st to strike in the 15th minute but their lead lasted  just 10 minutes when the visitors(CC) equalised with a 20 yard free kick  and it was they who increasingly grew in confidence as the 1st half progressed. Having said that, their keeper made an outstanding double save on the stroke of half-time. 

The 2nd half carried on where the 1st half finished with CC confidently knocking the ball about but they took the lead in somewhat comical circumstances when the home keeper made the mistake of attempting to dribble the ball out from a back pass and lost it ,leaving the attacking forward to roll the ball into the goal. This was just the gee-up DT needed and they set about the visitors with gusto. The two additional goals they did score could well have been 3 or 4 as they piled pressure on the visitors, their substitutes proving to be a thorn in their side.

A thoroughly entertaining game played in an excellent spirit.
