Trelawny League
Division Three
ST ERME FC 3 RUAN MINOR FC 4
Football can sometimes be a cruel game and it proved so for St Erme FC when 2 minutes from time, a sliced volley from their defender looped over the home keepers head to deny them a point that they deserved.
The game started at a fast pace with both sides carving out early chances but after 16 minutes, Minor took the lead through TROY RENDLE who slotted home. Within a minute the scores were level when The Saints equalised through LEWIS BRIDGER who beat two defender before shooting home.
Ruan retook the lead on 36 minutes when KYLE FURNESS tucked the ball home. With time ticking down towards my half time cuppa with 43 minutes on the clock, MARK MITCHELL cut in from the left wing and shot home.
Ruan came out fired up for the second half and took a 3-2 lead when a own goal sliced in to the bottom corner of the net.
St Erme pressed forward and began to control the game but the finishing ball wasnt there until the 75th minute, when LEWIS BRIDGER fired from the edge of the box after a cross from the right wing.
St Erme changed formation and looked the more likely winner and were unlucky to see a shot bounce off the crossbar after 84 minutes.
In the 88th minute, Ruan Minor beat the offside trap and a St Erme defender lobbed his own keeper to give Ruan Minor the points to head back towards the Lizard.
