Lots of goals today!!!

Florence lined up against Hilton Harriers at home on a sunny afternoon.

Pitch looks great for this time of the season.

In the opening Minute Hilton almost get in via an error in defence, bringing an early save from J Grocott.

With 5` gone Hilton have already won a couple of free kicks, which our defence have dealt with.

On 8` Hilton win yet another Free kick on the By-line, our keeper takes and sends down field.

Hilton win the ball in mid and feed their striker who cuts inside and gets his shot away, high over the bar!

15` long ball into the Florence box, headed away by N Woods.

We have played some good play in midfield but have been caught offside 3 times in the first 16 mins!!!!
Our strikers just need to time their runs better.

20` We have a free kick which is taken by S Edwards, he finds A Byrne out wide he then lifts it high to N woods,
who in turn heads it down for D Biegus to fire home, but he gets under it and its well over the bar! Great play and a good chance to go in front!
22 Some good play in midfield and this time we make the most of it! S Edwards plays a perfect ball into J Baker who heads in at the near post!!!!! great movement and finish 1-0.

Florence looking more settled now and on 25` we win a corner which again is put in by S Edwards this falls to M Johnson on the edge of the box, but his shot is wide.
End to end stuff at the moment and now Hilton have a corner which goes in and gets headed just over! our keeper did have it covered.
25` D Heler makes a great run inside and cuts the ball back which is cleared, maybe he should of gone himself!

J Jones works hard to win the ball and finds D Heler who does well in holding off the defenders but his shot goes into the keeper.

30` M Johnson holds up the ball and finds N Woods in space he sets himself & shoots and scores!!!! 2-0 seems to have found his shooting boots lately!!!
37` Great tackle in mid from S Edwards who then finds N Woods, he sends D Heler away towards goal, cuts in and shoots wide!! just not his day so far! could of had 2 or 3.

Hilton press forward and commit our keeper to a challenge which is given as a foul on their striker and they get the penalty which they convert. 2-1.
43` J Jones plays a one two with N Woods, he then sets D Heler up who shoots just wide of the back post.

Almost on half time good pressure from Florence cause a miss clearance from Hilton it ends up with N Woods who makes no mistake and hammers home 3-1.

Half Time.

The opening 10` of the 2nd half is 50/50 with both teams happy to sit back.

Hilton get a few balls into our box but J Hall and M Burnett clear, with no real problems.
63` A Parr on for J jones.
Hilton make a great run in behind and force a great save from J Grocott who does really well to palm it onto the post.

Hilton try a 35yd shot but is high over the bar.
Hilton have a player down in the middle of the park, as N Woods jogs away!!! just the norm then!!!!

78` D Biegus works well with J Baker but the final ball is cut out to stop the move.
80` S Edwards off J Boulton on.

A long high ball down the wing is brought down by J Boulton but as he does so their defender knocks him off the pitch into the side barrier and he`s down getting treatment.

Hilton have another attack and again J Grocott makes the save with his feet this time.
J Boulton back on closing down in midfield causing a mistake from their player, who gives the ball away to J Baker who plays D Biegus in just to much on it and the keeper collects.

Florence give another freekick away which is played short and carried forward, then its played across the 18yd box to the back stick where its headed in 3-2. inch perfect cross onto his head!!

Florence are now just looking to protect the ball and see this out.

The whistle goes for Full Time
