HAMWORTHY UNITED RESERVES 0 BLANDFORD UNITED 3

Magna Dorset Premier League (Saturday 13-11-10)

Unfortunately it was the same old story for the Reserves, another loss to another team who really in most departments were no better than them. Hamworthy had nobody who could put a worth while shot in on goal, and are still making too many costly mistakes at the back. The absence up front of Jack Foster who had family commitments and Mike Glavin at the back did not help in these matters.

The Reserves once again more than held their own for the first thirty minutes. Despite some good approach work they were unable to trouble the Blandford keeper with a telling finish. The nearest they came was when Bamidele Asagba was put through one on one with the Keeper who rushed out of his area to win the tackle, and clear. An error by the Hamworthy defence who up to that point looked quite comfortable allowed Blandford to take the lead after thirty two minutes. The play continued to be fairly even until the break with Scot Wilson the Home Keeper making a couple of good saves before the half time whistle blew.

HT 0-1

The second half continued much as the first with the young Hamworthy team playing some reasonable football in mid-field, but still unable to penetrate up front. Just as in the first half Hamworthy were again caught at the back and Blandford doubled their lead half way through the second period. Heads now began to go down as the Blues with the pressure off, began to control the game for the first time in the match. It came as no surprise when they scored a third, and it could have got worse when a fourth goal was ruled out for off side. As the game drew to a close the Reserves did rally a little, but it was all too late.
