⚽Midland Football League Premier Div⚽
AFC Wolverhampton City 2 Coton Green 1
Pre kick-off, we had a nice chat with James Hill(ex AFC Wulfrunians), the guy responsible for organising the kids teams at AFC WC. they now have 13 teams through all age groups. Well done him and the club.
These two went at it hammer and tongue straight from the off, no PL tippy tappy rubbish here and on 10 minutes City took the lead. A few good passes down the RW, a decent cross and number 11 Luckman stuck his foot out to score⚽. The visitors always looked comfortable on the ball but it was noticeable there didnt seem to be too much of a threat regarding goal attempts. That said, they did equalise on 32 minutes via a headed goal from Number 10 James Henry⚽.
Within 5 minutes off the restart, City were reduced to 10 men. That left Coton with a numerical advantage they didn't seem to capitalise on ; numerous times they would foil a City attack and fail to gain from it. That reticence came back to bite them when on 80 minutes they also were reduced to 10. 5 minutes later City broke from their area with a sweet pass down the left, a cross and number 9 was their to drive it home⚽.
This was a great watch. Fast football from 2 very good teams. Coton failed to use their advantage and paid the price while praise must be given to city for digging in when needed.
