Grampound 0-4 Looe Town Res.

23 September 2023

St Piran League Division 3 East

Grampound suvived until the 20th minute after given away numerous chances but 3 quick goals and another on the stroke of half time gave Looe a commanding half-time lead.  Grampound were denied a good chance when Jamie Bennetts was clearly fouled on the half way line and the referee allowed them to play on with the advantage.  However, as a Grampound striker reached the Looe penalty area, clear of any defenders, the referee stopped play and made Grampound take a free kick fifty yards back near the centre spot - an awful decision.  However, Grampound continued to give the ball back to their opponents so frequently that Looe did not really have to challenge much to gain regular possession.
A change af shape after the break seemed to give Grampound improved  composure  and the visitors looked a lot less potent, with the home side managing to avoid conceding further goals and threatening a few times but without success.
