The boys was clearly rusty when it came to playing, after not playing for over a month over the Christmas Break effected us quite early on. But I think we found our feet quicker than the home side. Carshalton had been on a 4 match winning streak and we wanted to carry on with streak. 

We had the disadvantage from the start as we had to go up hill on a frosty hard pitch, the boys put in a great shift the whole half with Hamzah coming close with the keeper making a save. We got it to half time with a score draw and we had everything in our hands. 

I made two subs, Niall Reilly came on for Charlie Chapman and James Turner came on for Jack Cox.

We came out fighting, if there was statistics for possession it had to be 70 - 30 we out played Mickleham with ease but we just couldn't get that finishing product. 

Hamzah, Saan and Gideon all came close with Hamzah clipping the post. It just wasn't our day specially when Mickleham had their first chance on goal from a counter and they managed to get the goal and I had to admit it was a great finish. 

The boys did not stop playing as they knew they deserved the goal, Gideon shot across goal with the keeper making the save. Niall took the corner only for it to come back to him, he went for a shoot/cross (he says it was a shot so I've got to take his word for it) it ended up in the back of the net as the keeper made a meal of it. The boys had the momentum back again but we didn't have enough time to grab that winner. 

The game finished 1 - 1 and for myself (Jon) it was my first draw in my life, it took me five years to get a draw and I must admit I didn't like it especially when we should of won.
