Things couldnโt have started much worse for our new Reserves side on their debut, with captain ๐๐ฆ๐ฏ ๐๐ถ๐ฏ๐ด๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ shown a red card within the first minute and a half.
Longfleet capitalised quickly on Poundburyโs slow start and their man advantage, finding themselves 2-0 up by the 20th minute. A good spell from the Pound just before half-time shouldโve seen them claw one back before the break.
The second half started much better, thanks to the addition of ๐๐ณ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ, with the Reserves continuing their dominance from before the break.
๐๐ข๐ฎ ๐๐ข๐บ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ณ scored the first after nice footwork inside the box, cooly slotting past the keeper. ๐๐ถ๐ช๐ด ๐๐ฐ๐ด๐ธ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ต๐ฉ then levelled things up not long after, with a long throw finding the centre-half who had made his way into the opposition box.
All hopes of a second-half comeback were crushed when Longfleet were awarded a late penalty, which they converted.
Despite creating plenty of chances to win the game while playing with just 10 men for 90 minutes, it just wasnโt our day. All attention now turns to next Saturday, with Stalbridge FC visiting home soil for another home fixture.
