GOOD DAY AT THE OFFICE FOR KEYWORTH

Nottinghamshire Senior League

Premier Division 

KEYWORTH UNITED FC 5 MAGDALA AMATEURS FC 1

Att: 38

A good day for Keyworth United as at 2pm the Developement team kicked off ther NS Division Two match v Bingham Town Reserves to which I watched about the last 15 minutes of the First Half in a game that the hosts won 2-1.

The match on the main pitch was Keyworth United v Magdala Amateurs in the Premier Division and we didnt have to wait long for a opening goal, infact after only 100 seconds the Greens of Keyworth had played a ball in from the right wing and Magdala;s Dan Harris had turned the ball in to his own net.

Magdala fought as they pressed forward and got a well deserved equaliser on 18 minutes through TOM HAW. Straight from kick off their keeper kept them on level terms with a superb one on one save.

The Second Half started the same way  as the First Half, as United gained a free kick just outside the penalty area on 100 seconds and up stepped CAMERON GREY to fire his side back in front.

Keyworth then had two penalties turned down which I felt were correct decisions from experianced referee Mick Leslie, but a foul inside the box on 68 minutes couldnt prevent SCOTT LITCHFIELD widening the scoreline to 3-1 to the greens.

On 72 minutes, SCOTT LITCHFIELD was quickest to a ball in midfield and outsprinted the defender before placing the ball past the outcoming keeper to the home fans delight.

On 86 minutes, Magdala sub was sent to the sin bin after kicking the ball away and then must have shown dissent , so the visitors were down to ten players for the final minutes of the game.

In the final minute,Keyworth pressed forward for the last time and IAN MARLEY helped himself on to the scoresheet and made the final score 5-1.

In the clubhouse after the match, I must thank Sam Ralph who kindly donated from Keyworth United FC a pound for each goal scored in the game, so that takes the running total to a amazing £951.75p towards FORGET ME NOT, a small charity that supports people with dementia and their partners and carers.
