(Duchy League Div 2)
Back to Fixtures

Grampound looked much the better team in the first half and could have been out of sight by half time.  Striker Glyn Ford missed a couple of chances before heading home a smart cross from Tom Bartlett on 20 minutes to give Grampound the lead. Grampound always looked as if they might score again and it was Glyn Ford again who headed Shane Weeks’ powerful driven cross into the top corner to extend the home team’s lead with a superb goal.

Fifteen minutes into the second half, Glyn Ford headed on a long clearance and Tom Bartlett picked the ball up and drove low past the visiting goalkeeper to make the lead 3-0. Delabole pulled the score back to 3-2 with a couple of goals that manager Tony Ford was very upset with his team about, one a free header from a corner and the second after 3 Grampound players should have cleared the ball.  Soon after he substituted two of Grampound’s older players who have a Vets semi-final in the morning.  The sending off of a player for each side seemed to affect Grampound most and the home team had to survive a Delabole onslaught but managed to put the result safe when Dean Dunn’s shot from the edge of the area evaded the goalkeeper and went in for Grampound’s fourth.
