hendon score 90th minute leveller to force a replay with Slough Town in FA Trophy 2017 football
subscribers my chanel hendon score 90th minute leveller to force a replay with Slough Town in FA Trophy 2017 football Hendon 1, Slough Town 1 A 90th minute equaliser from Hendon’s Kezie Ibe means Slough Town will have to replay at Arbour Park on Tuesday night for a place in the first round of the FA Trophy. The Rebels looked to be booking their place in the next round when Chris Flood did well down the left and pulled the ball back for James Dobson to finish low into the net in the 61st minute. But, just as they did at Banbury United in the league on Tuesday night, the Rebels conceded late on when the ball was poked home by Ibe from close range following a scramble in the area. Dobson came closer to giving the visitors the lead in the first half when his snap shot from 25 yards clattered against the post. Flood’s follow up in the same move was then saved by the Hendon keeper. The sides will replay the third qualifying round match on Tuesday night, kick-off 7.45pm. -- Beaconsfield Town 4, Marlow 0 Beaconsfield Town claimed their revenge on Marlow for knocking them out of the FA Cup earlier in the season as they thrashed the Blues 4-0 at Holloways Park this afternoon. Aaron Minhas put the home side on their way to a convincing home win when he fired them ahead with a cheeky chip from a quick throw in. One became two shortly after the half-time interval when Minhas burst through on the Blues goal and fired the ball through Simon Grant’s legs. Goldy Capela got on the scoresheet when he turned sharply and stroked the ball into the bottom left hand corner of Grant’s net. Capela then rounded off the scoring when he met Minhas’ cross with a powerful header to make it 4-0. -- Windsor 2, Burnham 0 Windsor got back to winning ways over struggling Burnham at Stag Meadow this afternoon, but they had to wait until the final 10 minutes to see off the stubborn challenge of Alan Paris’ men. Manager Mick Woodham would have expected his Royalists side to bag all three points and they duly obliged, but they had to wait until the 85th minute to take the lead, when former Premier League striker Barry Hayles found the net. Victory was confirmed a minute later when Riccardo Cannon added a second to deflate Burnham after a brave rearguard display. Windsor, who haven’t produced their best performances at home this season, will be pleased to have taken the points in front of their own fans and to have got back to winning ways after their mid-week home defeat to Abingdon United. -- Henley Town P-P Holyport Holyport’s Hellenic League Division 1 East encounter at Henley Town was postponed today because the Red Kites’ pitch was waterlogged in places. The game will be replayed later in the season. -- Reading 0, Sheffield Wednesday 0 Neither side was able to make the breakthrough as Reading held Sheffield Wednesday to a stalemate at the Madejski Stadium this afternoon. One of the game’s best chances fell to Modou Barrow with 10 minutes to play but he failed to steer his shot on target from Boovarsson’s cut back. The Royals had the run of the game in the first period but it remained goalless and the closest they came was a header from Liam Moore that went over the bar, while Sone Aluko fired wide of the post in the sixth minute after being sent in on goal. -- Wycombe Wanderers 2, Yeovil Town 1 All the goals came in the first half as Wycombe Wanderers claimed a 2-1 win over Yeovil Town at Adams Park. The inform Chairboys had to wait until the 35th minute to take the lead when a deep cross fell for Ebere Eze and he lashed the ball into the far corner of the net for his third goal in as many home games. The home side then doubled their lead when Paris Cowan-Hall was brought down for a penalty in the 42nd minute and Joe Jacobson made no mistake from the spot. Manager Gareth Ainsworth would have wanted, and expected, his side to have carried that advantage into the interval, but they weren’t able to do so and Zoko fired in from close range in the 44th minute to bring the visitors back into contention. No further goals followed – although Adebayo Akinfenwa struck the bar with very nearly the last kick - and the 3,834 inside Adams Park were able to celebrate another heart warming win on a chilly November day. Ainsworth said afterwards: “It’s a good win. I was really disappointed we let them back in the game; it was a poor mistake. But we kept spirits up & did a professional job.” ||Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100017952030223 ||YouTub;https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsCQjJLuCJCgEV2OZglc1JQ ||google:https://plus.google.com/b/106076117085030735863/106076117085030735863
HRR 2009 QF - Abingdon vs. Belmont Hill
Probably one my most epic races so far - the Quarter final of Henley Royal Regatta 2009, against Belmont Hill School, USA. So epic in fact, my lips went numb during it. This was our final - if we won this, we had a straightforward Saturday to reach the final. Belmont came over saying they were the only crew who could challenge Eton - that, after how Eton embarrassed everyone at National Schools, none of the British crews were up to snuff. Into a small stream, and with a mild headwind, they went out hard to try and kill us off before the Barrier. They even had clear water, as the stream advantage switched to us. But we were known for our relentless pace in the second half, and wore them down through Fawley. The guys always believed, trusted me when I told them they could still win. Even as the stream switched back to Belmont's advantage, we had pulled back enough contact to make our presence worrying. As the closing stages of the race approached, we bore down on them hard coming into the enclosures. Even in the worst part of the stream, we were still moving. Coming into the last 300m, they broke down into two separate fours, and began to fall apart. Rating 42, we put the foot to the throat and dealt the final blow, winning by a foot of clear water. These Abingdon boys are my eternal brothers. Enjoy. A-S-B-C!
