Hard Week for Mens 4s

The team started off slow in the first half Basingstoke making good headway against the Portsmouth defence. Which resulted in them taking the lead but were further denied by Matthew ‘Gumpy’ Forrest in the Pompey goal. The first half ended with Basingstoke in the lead with 1-0.

After some inspiration from Sammy, the Portsmouth team started to pressure Basingstoke’s defence, however, this was short lived as Basingstoke continued their lead with a further 2 goals.

A short corner goal from Bryan Hodges gave Portsmouth a glint of hope. However, 5 minutes to the end Ed Lewis was green carded for a dangerous tackle and arguing with the umpire.

Game ended 3-1 to Basingstoke.

MOM Josh Knott for his debut game.
