The Brook started this game determined to erase the memory of Saturday's dire performance against Potters Bar.They immediately set about pressuring the Aylesbury defence and in the first 15 minutes Debattista & Asante were unlucky to see shots go wide of the Aylesbury goal.

With Jake Cass & Jordan Berry dominating midfield well supported by Eugene Asante & Dominic Rhone it seemed only a matter of time before the Brook's pressure told.

On 30 minutes Asante fired in a shot from the edge of the area which was well saved by Weatherill in the visitors goal & from the corner Christian Barrett headed against the bar.

However the old adage is true,if you don't score when you are on top you will invariably be punished and so were the Brook.

Right on half-time Aylesbury won a corner which the Brook failed to deal with and with the ball falling kindly Jeanmal Prosper scored to give the visitors an undeserved half-time lead.

The 2nd half saw Aylesbury start on the front foot and they started to get more ball possession which in turn put pressure on the home defence.

Melvyn Minter was now the busier of the two keepers but he comfortably dealt with all Aylesbury's attempts to increase their lead.
He was ably assisted by the Brook back four especially Luke Baldwin who made 3 superbly timed tackles to deny the Aylesbury attack.

The Brook's manager made his 3 substitutes with Ben-Elmanni replacing Rhone,Akinjirin replacing Debattista and Dawson replacing Asante but the Brook seemed to lose their shape and they were finding it difficult to maintain the pressure on the visitors.

In the last 10 minutes the Brook had several opportunities to get the ball into the box & create pressure on the Aylesbury defence but seemed reluctant to play the ball into the area and the chances were missed.

A much improved performance from the Brook but goals win match's so again the Brook were left ruing their missed opportunities.
