Just back from game
Decent match. At times we looked far the better side (start if first and second half) but had faded badly and never looked like scoring.
Their goal, free-kick, flew in as if hit by Hot Shot Hamish - came from their right back McArdle who looked fairly useful.
Our goal was comical - mis hit shot from 12 yards by Adeyemi that their keeper let inexplicably let through his legs - I guess it was such a soft shot that he took his eye off it. We had hit the post and crossbar and they had hit the inside of the post late on.
Penalties - Rudd was superb diving away to his left three times to save. He looked a very useful and commanding keeper all night.
Cente backs looked good especially Dumic. We played 4-5-1 against their 4-4-2. Kelly played alone up front and did ok. Centre midfield of Omergie, Smith and Adyemi bossed the game at times.
Overall a deserved result and it clearly meant a lot to the lads.
Crowd of 350 with at least 7 Norwich fans there and a fair few that I would guess were parents.
Funniest thing was at full time the managers shook hands and half the crowd got up and left not realising there was extra time!!
