Brockham U16As played out a terrific game of football against Twin Oaks at the weekend, perhaps feeling hard done by not to have got all three points as for the second game running Badgers finished the far stronger of the two sides only to finish with a draw.
Brockham started once more with a high tempo and scored inside 5 minutes, Stephen Kehl tapping home after the keeper parried a Henry Hill shot.
Twin Oaks have gained a couple of good cup scalps this season, including A league Ashurst Wood, and played their part in an entertaining match. Brockham were just shading it though, and it was slightly against the run of play when 5 minutes into the second half Twin Oaks equalised, a long range shot finding the inside of the post with the otherwise excellent Brockham keeper Connor Mitchell just failing to tip the ball round the post.
The last 20 minutes saw Brockham have all the possession. Chances fell to Hill, Kehl and Tom Bletso from some fine Ollie Legg corners, but somehow the Twin Oaks goal escaped with the game finishing at 1-1. Ref Neil Holland went out of his way at the end of the game to complement both sides on a fine game which reflected well on both clubs
Lad of the match went to Stephen Kehl for his tireless running, although midfielder Ollie Smith ran Kehl close with an energetic performance
