⚽ Midland Football League Premier Division⚽
Wolves Casuals 2 Darlaston 2
Played at Brinsford lane
Anyone arriving late will have missed the highlight of the first half, Darlaston being awarded a penalty in the first minute and they were denied an immediate lead when the keeper diving to his left, pulled off a brilliant save. The rest of the first period was very much nip and tuck with both sides having good spells of possession and some thundering tackles going in.
As in the first half, there was early action following the break ; a Casuals defender misjudged the bounce, allowing Bishop a clear run at goal and he made no mistake, 1-0 to Darlaston⚽. Casuals were almost level within a couple of minutes but the shot was skied. The visitors increased their lead on 57 minutes, a corner from the right caused a big muddle in the area and the ball was prodded home by Podmore⚽, 2-0 to Darlaston and they were looking good for three points, although it has to be said the score didn't reflect the game. Casuals reduced the arrears on 74 minutes, the ball trickling over the line from their number 12⚽ ; it was no more than they deserved and two minutes they were level via a thunderbastard free kick from Smith⚽, it being awarded after the keeper mistakenly picked up the ball from a back pass. The momentum had certainly shifted in Casuals' favour although the visitors still looked dangerous.
That was how things finished, honours even, which was probably a fair result after both sides entertained us, especially in the second period.
