COMMON REMAINED UNBEATEN

11:50pm Sunday 23rd November 2008 in News

Baddesley Park B visited Colden Common B on the back of an excellent result against Totton the previous week.

Baddesley started the game well with two or three attacks on the Colden Common goal but to no avail.

Colden Common started to compose themselves & had some attacks of their own including one off the bar.

Rosenthal in the Baddesley goal was in good form commanding his area well.

Colden Common made the breakthrough when, after a corner, the ball was lifted over Cornwell who was on the line and into the net. The game opened up with both teams looking for goals and it was Baddesley who found the net.

Merritt tidied up after a corner, the ball was pushed forward to Donworth who found Moody. After a determined run from Moody the ball found Munday who flicked the ball over the head of the Colden Common defender and volleyed over the advancing 'keeper.

The Second half started with both teams looking for more goals and Baddesley took the lead when Mundays persistence was rewarded when he stole the ball from the Colden Common 'keeper and prodded the ball into the open goal.

Colden Common pulled a goal back with a bullet header from a corner.

Baddesley kept pushing with Brown & Bull pushing the team forward & Moody scored an outrageous goal from the left with a lob from all of 20 yards straight over the 'keeper.

Colden Common drew level with a goal equal to Moodys effort ten minutes earlier.

Neither team were looking for a draw and were both looking for winner.

Colden Common got their fourth when Tailby attempted to clear the ball but put it past Rosenthal for an OG.

Baddesley pushed for their fourth goal but were caught out by a Colden Common attack to take the game beyond Baddesley with their fifth of the game.
