Box Hill entertained Manningham in very good conditions at Wembley Park. The boys started brightly and created a few chances however they didn’t find the target. Midway through the first half Box Hill scored to take the lead. Manningham struggled to get out of their half at times & our keeper only touched the ball once. Having said that they were resolute in defence & were challenging well for 50:50 balls & their keeper, like in the first game was best on ground for them.
The Box Hill boys came out in the second half & were more resolute with most players challenging for 50:50 balls. 10 minutes into the second half and Box Hill scored to make it 2-0. A third was quickly added when a Manningham player turned the ball into their own net for an own goal from a corner. Unfortunately Box Hill could not add to the score line, however had secured the 3 points to stay in touch with Doncaster. Full credit goes to Manningham who played their hearts out and worked hard for each other until the final whistle & to both teams who played the game in good spirits.
Next week is the big game for this league with league leaders Doncaster playing Box Hill over at Anderson Park in a match which is likely to decide who finishes top in the Under East 12B League. One thing is for sure & that is that the lads in Yellow & Green will ensure that the Box Hill boys will have to bring their best game in order to secure all 3 points.
We can’t wait!!
