Gornal progress in the Birmingham FA Vase

                                                    ⚽  Birmingham FA Vase ⚽


Gornal Athletic 2  v  Southam United 0  

Played at Garden Walk Stadium

Me and mate Pete reckoned this was one of the best games we've seen on our groundhopping trips this season.

The visitors made the early running albeit without threatening a goal but Gornal were soon into their stride and were beginning to look dangerous. The 1st goal was a beauty ; from a corner the ball was hit on the volley giving the keeper no chance. this seemed to spur the hosts and they were playing some nice stuff without further reward. The visitors certainly had their moments but seemed to run out of steam once they reached the opposition area with their big number 9 often ploughing a lone furrow up front.

After the break thinks warmed up considerably with both sides giving it a real go ; Gornal putting together some eye-catching passing and Utd refusing to yield. Another goal was always on the cards and it went to Gornal late in the game.

Gornal were worth their win but the visitors played their part in an exhilarating match.
