Hempnall FC

Competition in midfield

Good judgement by Cudden who flies off the line to just beat the Cromer player to the ball

Cudden dominates in his area at a corner

Cudden turns the ball past the post

Mills showed his quality and fighting spirit to help Hempnall back into the game

Cromer keeper out quick when it looked as though Mills, in the one on one, would score

As always, Player showed skill and fight throughout the match

Hempnall free kick not quite on the money as the keeper catches despite the attentions of several Hempnall players

Szlaek had a good game in his wing back role on the right

Ball just too long for Mills and the keeper intercepted

Under the gaze of the manager, Bardesley rises highest

Hunter just does enough to stop the Cromer player getting in a good cross

Good catch by the reliable Cudden

Player again takes no prisoners in his fair aerial challenge

For the most part, it was half chances for Hempnall, on this occasion, the defence did enough to deter Haynes

Haynes almost in but keeper wins out

McFadden competes with the taller Cromer player

Hunter effort not strong enough

Player never gives the opposition time

Pretty looked elegant

Hempnall's efforts were generally from distance

Good penalty from Haynes after Mills was fouled by the keeper

I thought the Cromer number 5 had an excellent match and won everything in the air

Mills back to help out at a corner

Shot from Bardsley, again from outside the box though

With sub JD flying, the Cromer keeper makes a very important interception

Cudden again comfortably diverts the ball away at a corner

Great bravery from Mills and the keeper, the ball just diverts past the upright though

Hempnall again apply the pressure, getting very difficult to see now (or take photos!)

Shot from McFadden beaten out

A little more luck and Hempnall would have had another goal or two, but the excellent Cromer defence held out

His almost fluorescent shirt showing in the gloom, Cudden's reaction save was excellent

Szalek had a very good game

Bardsley, like all of the team, kept going until the end

Despite the ability of the Hempnall forwards, generally, Cromer dealt with the threat

Bardsley adjudged to have fouled the keeper by ref Owen who I thought was first class

Good catch in the murky light
