3-1: Through some decent short passing down our left hand side, Wednesday manage to pull our defence out of positions. The photo below shows we've got five players around the corner of our box, but nobody can close down the crosser.
In the middle Walker is on his own with Esajas, but Varney is also making a run into the box that he needs to be aware of, and he's got a lot of ground to cover. In any case the cross goes over him, Esaias makes the header, but hits Varney. Walker balloons his clearence and Tudgay knocks it in.
I say well done to them for this goal. They manage to pull our defenders out of positions, and when the cross is hit we have ONE defender in the box waiting for it, and from then on it's panic defending.
We have still three chances to avoid a goal:
But as we've been out of position, nobody are anticipating anything, just reacting instinctively to each situation as it happens.
3-2: Great shot, but it's in the goalkeeper's corner, and from that distance, Bunn should really have saved it.

We have still three chances to avoid a goal:
- Walker should have nodded it out for a corner, rather than trying the overhead kick.
- Monty could have blocked Tudgay's shot
- Morgan could have blocked the shot, it rolls under his foot
