Esher Athletic |
A superb start by Casuals a goal by Sam 3 minutes into the game and Casuals dominated but again could not fin d the killer touch. Esher won a free kick just outside the box and the shot slipped under Matt's body for the equaliser totally against the run of play. Casuals drove at the Esher defence and for long periods were pinned in their own half then a poorly placed pass allowed a Esher froward to pounce and put them 2-1 up going into halftime.
From the k.o. Casuals went for it and were rewarded with an equaliser from Jared. Casual continued to drive forward but once again a silly defensive error allowed Esher to take the lead again. Richard eventually got the equaliser. Casuals drove forward for the winner but were denied by the woodwork on three occasions but as it appeared time had run out Harry's brought down in the penalty area. Scott calmly placed his spot kick to make it 4-3. Casuals made hard work of a game that should have been over and done after four minutes.
