Match Report

TTA report

Parts of the ground were under water, others were treacherous. An OG (3) and a “fast low shot“ (SRI) by Keay (40) made it 2-0 at half-time. Duff misjudged a long shot (54) then a scramble at a corner tied things up (57). It was even after that and Wednesday (at full strength) got their winner with a raking shot (78).
