SHEPSHEDDYNAMO-OURLASTMEETING

St Neots replaced Rider with Robbie Mason after the break and within seven minutes he made his presence felt with a neat flick to find Trey Charles who rounded his marker to pull a goal back for St Neots. That could have sparked a revival, but the home defence was stubbornly uncompromising despite St Neots enjoying the much greater share of possession.

From the home sides’ point of view, they had successfully stifled St Neots’ best efforts and those opening four minutes of the match had provedsignificantandconclusive.
