Orpington & District v South London

We entertained South London at our Home ground at Cockmannings Lane on Wednesday 2nd April. The difference between the two sides came down to finishing.

It was not long into the match before we found ourselves 2-0 down. The South London strikers made no mistake in picking up on our lapses in concentration at the back. However, we thought we had got back into the game when James Keyworth scored with a great left foot volley 5 minutes or so before the break.

Unfortunately in the dying seconds of the first half South London made it 3-1 and just after half time added another to give them a 4-1 lead. From then on we dominated the game, creating plenty of chances, but we just couldn't find the finishing touch to our moves. Despite threatening to do so, we were never able to reduce the deficit and the score remained 4-1 until the final whistle.
