AFC Totton 2 v 0 Bognor Regis Town

[cityboy]

A glorious sunny evening and a superb pitch greeted Bognor as they popped over to Southampton for their latest pre-season friendly.
The hosts, like ourselves liked to play football and a interesting game of possession and counter attack took place.
Tottontook the lead when Bognor made a poor defensive error getting caught in possession in their own 25. The finish by the Totton forward was clynical and gave Hall no chance in the Bognor goal. With Pattenden probing Bognor had several chances to score but nobody was on the end of the final pass.
Both teams made changes into the 2nd half, and Bognor continued to look for the equaliser but rarely tested the home keeper despite some good possession. With game going deeper into time another silly error this time on the half way line lead to another Totton counter attack and a superb strike which again gave Hall no chance. 2.0 game over!!!
A good workout for both teams with some decent football being played; a shame the game was decided by our errors, something we cannot afford to do against Dorking on Saturday
