The ball finds Tom Solway unmarked at the back post and he should score, but drags it just wide of Martin’s goal. [1-1] 20’

And now it’s Rec’s turn to squander a golden opportunity. Le Lacheur’s effort drew Shepherd out his goal and it falls to Glenn Le Tissier who can only hit the covering defender on the line! [1-1] 22’

Saints break quickly and a crossed free kick box cannons off the bar and back out! [1-1] 23’

Saints are quickly level again. Rio Bowditch taps home unmarked from a corner. [2-2] 35’

Larkin heads off the line after another unchallenged Saints header in the box. [2-3] 39’

Some last ditching defending, Rowe with the crucial block, denys Saints extending their lead. [2-3] 45’
