⚽ Midland Football League Premier Div⚽
AFC Wulfrunians 1 Romulus 1
Wulfrunians were at Romulus from the off, hitting the woodwork twice within the first 20 minutes but the visitors were in no mood to give anything away and their defending was something to behold. Apart from the odd breakaway, the visitors rarely threatened and it took until 30 + minutes for them to mount anything serious and that amounted to a disallowed goal for handball but that was the spark for them to liven up and for the rest of the half they looked a lot brighter, hitting the bar from a turn and shot from short range, this being their first real goal attempt.
Romulus started the second period as they'd finished the first, on the front foot and it was they who now looked the most likely. That being the case, it was against the run of play, somewhat,that Wulfrunians took the lead on 65 minutes through Barker who, receiving the ball from the left, had as much time as he wanted to score⚽. Both sides were really going for it and something had to give and so it was on 88 minutes the visitors drew level via an own goal which, it has to be said, they deserved⚽.
A real good game for neutral and partisan alike with both teams fully committed.
