Devizes Mens Seonds v. City of Bath A 2-0

Saturday November 28 2009

Back

Devizes A team displayed an average performance to end up 2-0 winners over City of Bath A in North Division 2. The game started very evenly with Devizes enjoying most of the possession and creating chances, the best of which fell to Grant Humphries who came close to opening the scoring. However the Bath team proved to be dangerous on the break, creating chances of their own. This produced the moment of the half, a brilliant save by Steve (Winko) Wells from a one on one. The second half continued in the same manner as the first until eventually, from a short corner, Matt Parry finished with a drag flick. Still Bath threatened and, again, were stopped by another fine save from Steve Wells. In the dying minutes the game was effectively settled when Grant Humphries pushed an excellent ball into the D for Matt Parry once again to finish superbly. Overall, due to the work rate and intensity of the Devizes players, they deservedly earned the win to maintain their push for promotion.
