Date:17th October 2007
Location:Horsham
A cup match that was won by half-time but our Division C opponents never
gave up.
Alex Moon got the ball rolling with two neat close-range finishes before
other first-half goals from Christopher Nicholson, Cameron Allan and
Ryan Lawford (penalty).
In truth we should have tripled that tally but poor finishing and great
goalkeeping kept Henfield in the game and they even managed to grab a
goal themselves to make it 2-1 at one stage.
The second half was even more one-way.
Anthony Jupp ran in three goals, the first of which was a belting
30-yarder, while Kieran Sullivan hammered home from 20 yards.
Alex was somehow denied a hat-trick on a number of occasions but Rumon
Ahmed did manage three, all top quality finishes after Henfield had
pulled another one back with five minutes to go.
In truth our defence was much better than the Henfield attack and both
Christopher and Connor Denny were just far too good for their defence to
handle.
Alex Holmes also looked good at left back in the second half, but there
will be harder tests than this to come
