BDHC (3) v Cambs City3s (2)

BDHC M1s v Cambs City 3s.

It's fair to say that a last second defeat in a bad tempered away match the last time these two sides met, had the Dragons out for revenge as they entertained Cambs City 3s at home. Things didn't get off to the best of starts; despite early chances, the Dragons conceded a penalty corner which City duly tucked away for a 1-0 lead in the first 10 minutes. The match was finely poised and some last ditch defending from Angus Macbeth kept Bourne Deeping in the game before Ben Brittain received an aerial from that man again Macbeth and chipped the ball past the Cambs 'keeper to equalize.
Chances were at a premium in this attritional contest, but when Brittain struck the post it was James Watkins who was on hand to calmly smash the rebound home to give the Dragons the lead.
Half time came and went with again Bourne Deeping riding their luck in the early stages of the half, another penalty corner whistling perilously close to the left hand corner. City did break through to make it 2-2, with a deflected goal, but Thomas Fowkes was on hand to finish from close range midway through the half. Further chances went begging to extend their lead, but City also had their chances to get back on terms. A well fought win which sees the Dragons back into 3rd place in the division.
MOTM - Angus Macbeth - great game both defending and going forward.
