Get in, Ajala. Poor by their keeper from a corner, but I'll take it.

Corner not on the D but they all count!

MrsGrey

Apparently having a little breather can be a good strategy! 🎉

Yeoldhammer

very well taken from Ajala thats striker instincts

chicagohammer

Loved the way that Ajala ran to the corner, full on knee slide and looked around and he was pretty much on his own 😀

buffybegood

Surely that was a penalty?

everhopeful

Where is VAR when you need it!

MrsGrey

Kicking the foot away in the penalty area is a special allowable foul in the Cup comp.

1-1 HT

Lukerz

Definite pen on half time

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

Thought we looked pretty bright going forward, Mukasa doing some good bits and Piroe looking a real asset at this level

Lukerz

Piroe, Mukasa, Orford the stand outs offensively, look ‘fairly’ comfortable at the back

If we can bring a couple of ‘big names’ on second half, we can win this

Lukerz

Anyway, COYI

This has Allardyce vs Forest vibes except we are in the same division as Saints. Could be a cricket score here and another step forward for Nuno towards the axe.

That’s the spirit!
You’re nothing if not consistent mate.🤣

Lukerz

This side is miles better than the Forest kids we put out

EXETERHAMMER

To win this , we will need 2 more goals.

Bowen winner

COYI

1-2

buffybegood

Get in, Ajala again.

steve

Guess we have our 20 goal a season man

chicagohammer

Just when I thought we were going nowhere Ajala pounces on a loose ball and drills it..really well taken goal

MrsGrey

🎉
But the defence was very poor.

BubblesNeverDies

Just as I was about to say I've seen paint dry faster........, I thought to myself let's wait a minute.

chicagohammer

Herrick…what on earth was that about

MrsGrey

Crazy keeper.

buffybegood

What was Herrick doing there???

MrsGrey

Going in for the kill now.

OutcastLondoner

Herrick’s definitely got that goalkeeper gene - the one that gave him the confidence to step up in a penalty shootout and also do that

chicagohammer

Now the big names come on…,not sure if there is a glitch in the matrix…we are leading and bring on strong attacking changes

Yeoldhammer

subbing him off on a hattrick nooo
