HORSLEY HILL FC 0 V 2 COUNDON & LEEHOLME YOUTH FC

Horsley Hill entertained Coundon at Temple Park in what can only be described as very blustery conditions. Both teams tried to get the ball down and play but the strong wind intervened. There was little between the teams when Christopher Howe gave Coundon lead on 25mins. From the restart the Hill went for the equaliser but a strong Coundon defence was resolute. Whilst still pressing for the equaliser the Hill were stunned when Sean Johnson doubled Coundons lead after good build up play. The second half was much the same with Hill searching to get back into the game but the solid Coundon back line were in fine form. The game ended 0-2 to Coundon but the Hill certainly gave a good account of themselves.
