Goalscorer
Cuffey
See 26 Jan post on Marlow game posted today for a much better result and report!
Hmmm well this was a case of men against boys…and we were the boys….Henley played short, pass and move hockey and had much better control of the ball and we struggled all first half to cope with them…even though on paper we were much stronger than the previous week against Marlow (who beat Henley the week before that!!).
We had chances early on but could not trouble their keeper whereas they were troubling Ant - at 3 down he hurt his ankle again and Matt Samouels deputised very well for him but he let in another 2 for a scary-looking 5-zip scoreline at half time.
2nd half we more than salvaged a bit of pride with Cuffey scoring instantly but then doing his knee in unfortunately - and the game was more even as we showed a lot of backbone although Henley continued to pass the ball better.
We could have got a couple of goals back and should have had a penalty and hopefully we have our form back for next week (although we are looking at a raft of personnel changes)…Henley scored in the last minute to equalise the half!…onwards and hopefully upwards next week!…
