CFY 3-2 Winchester

CHANDLERS FORD 3-2 WINCHESTER
09.09.06 – FRIENDLY

Jozef Montigue helped Chandlers Ford to an early lead as he latched onto a wayward goal kick by getting the ball out of his feet and chipping over the keeper into the bottom right corner.

Winchester rarely threatened however their first attempt on goal pegged CFY back only one minute after the opening goal. The visitors raced through on goal and a fluke long distance lob found its way over Karthik Basker and into the top corner for the equaliser.

CFY could have taken the lead once more as Robbie Hurst burst forward from defence smashing the ball against the cross bar.

It was soon 2-1 through Thorsten Tramischus who reacted quickly in the box from a David Harris corner. The looped in hitting the post before Thorsten poked the ball in from the rebound.

HALF TIME – CFY 2-1 Winchester

In the second half Winchester had several chances to pull the game level, and it wasn’t long before they came close. Karthik Basker was kept busy making some good saves but with the defence playing too deep it meant their opponents could run free on goal and not be offside.

The equaliser came mid-way through the half through a headed goal. It looked like it would end this way until the last moments of the match. With some of the first half players being given a rest Chandlers Ford all of a sudden looked brighter when captain David Phillips and strikers Montigue and Tramischus returned to the pitch.

Right at the death, Jozef Montigue brought the ball down with his chest laying it off for Liam Godfrey who belted the ball low and hard which proved to be too hot to handle for the Winchester keeper as it crept over the line for the winning goal.
