Bears progress in the FA Trophy!

Heath made a few changes to last weeks side that played Hassocks, Lewis Hyde came in for his first game for the club for injured Brad Peters, Sean Terry, Charlie Connell & Matt Hay all came back in through rotation.

Heath started the game really strong and the rotations were causing South Park problems but without really threatening the South Park keeper until the 23rd minute when a long clearance from Keeper Hadfield was flicked on by Elliot Romain for Luke Bejashvili to finish first time and give Heath a deserved lead 0-1.

Heath continued to press and in the 27th minute after good build up Charlie Connell found himself on the 6 yard box but failed to hit the target with a snap shot.

South Park's first real chance came in the 38th minute when a good cross from the right was narrowly missed by the pacey left winger, then on 41 minutes Heath should have increased there lead, a good move ending with Both Matt Hay and Bejashvili going thru on goal only for Hay to shoot straight at the South Park keeper.

Just before half time, Heath were punished for there missed opportunities when a South Park counter attack resulted in an equaliser by Craig McGee to end the 1st Half 1-1.

South Park came out stronger in the 2nd half and were pushing for a winning goal, although they had the greater possession and attacks they rarely threatened Hadfield, then in the 73rd minute against the run of play a long goal kick by Hadfield was chased down by Callum Dowdell and some confusion in the South Park back line allowed him to nip in and round the stranded South Park keeper and finish to give Heath a 2-1 lead.

Neither side really created anything else of note and Heath held on for a great Away Win to progress into the 2nd Qualifying round of the FA Trophy.

After the match Heath manager Chris Simmons said “The first 30-40 minutes of that half was some of the best we had played this season but again not taking our chances and a poor mistake makes a tough game of it"

Team: Hadfield, Staight, Terry, Marino, Lowery, Hyde (Frankland 60), Bejashvili (Dowdell 70), Connell (Napper 65), Romain (Adam 80), Hay (Andall-Gibbons 75), Young.
