S&B 1st XI held in 1-1 draw with Witham 1’s

S&B 1’s travelled to Witham unbeaten since the first game of the season and sitting top of the table. We knew that Witham would not be an easy game, having played them in previous seasons and the games always being closely fought. This game started no different, with end to end play and Witham not giving S&B the time on the ball that they had been used to in previous games. With some great strikes in the first half, and excellent saves from both the Witham keeper, and S&B’s Carmel Kenny, the half time score was 0-0.

S&B came out fighting in the second half, with attacking play resulting in Chloe Syvrett flicking the ball past the Witham keeper, giving the lead to S&B. However, 5 minutes later, Witham equalised, 1-1. For the rest of the game, S&B battled hard for the elusive winning goal, but after picking up a couple of injuries, the score remained 1-1. Just 1 point for S&B this week, but the 1’s are looking forward to getting back to winning ways next week.
