First half GNE were always second best, Stone won most of the headers and were always first in the tackle. Both goals were soft. The first was a shot after the striker had waltzed down the right hand side of the defence, never in danger of being tackled. The 2nd was a goalkeeping error but it was a new goalkeeping error so that's ok. Stone could easily have had a penalty before the break but the referee obviously felt we were struggling enough without him making things worse.
After what seemed like forever, GNE came out for the 2nd half with no changes and were soon in debt again to the referee who allowed a Trucca header to stand when most would have blown for a Kharas foul on the keeper. Hammy was brought on soon after and the game began to be played in the Stone half. The pressure paid off when, incredibly, Trucca once again found himself in the 6 yard box and levelled the scores at 2-2. From this point there was only ever going to be one winner but unfortunately time ran out.
