HARPENDEN:
9
CHESHUNT: 1
19.03.05
It was mission accomplished for Harpenden
Mens 1st XI on Saturday. They have successfully bounced back from
a disappointing relegation last season and confirmed their promotion
back to Division 1 with a 9-1 victory over an already relegated
Cheshunt side. Harpenden went into the game fairly confident that
a win would be enough to guarantee promotion and they managed to
claim the 3 points in convincing style.
In
a slightly disappointing first half, Harpenden only managed to score
two goals and could have possibly conceded at the other end if it
wasn’t for a good save from keeper Alan Clarke. Lance Boyd
Clarke scored Harpenden’s first, putting away a cross from
the right and Nigel Timms grabbed his first of three in an impressive
Man of the Match winning performance.
Harpenden put in a much more impressive performance in the second
half and this was helped by a goal in the opening seconds of the
half from Ali Hutson who grabbed his first of two goals. Mike Emes
and Matt Horn also added their names to the score sheet, with a
goal each from Short Corners. Feeling somewhat left out, Cheshunt
joined in the fun by scoring a goal for each team but there was
never any doubt about where the points were going.
With celebrations quickly out of the way Harpenden will now be looking
forward to next season where they will be looking to build further
on their recently improved performances. |
