Next
up was a crucial game at the foot of the table
of Group B as we had the teams currently occupying
6 th and 7 th coming face to face. Maidenhead
had just picked up their first three points
of the day and if they could make that 2 out
of 2 they still had a chance of making the Cup.
Anything less and you would feel that the Plate
was the most likely destination for their knock-out
football.
For
EDC2, Cup qualification was beyond them as they
had two games left and the team currently occupying
4 th were on 7 points. However, all was not
lost. If they could win their last couple of
games they would go into the Plate with momentum
and if they could finish 5 th would earn a bye
to the Semi-Finals and avoid a tricky Quarter-Final
tie.
Maidenhead
would have come into the game on a high after
a good 1-0 win over DePuy Blackpool and they
carried that form into this game. They lead
1-0 at half-time thanks to a Yacine Rehoudja
goal. In the second half 1-0 became 2-0 as Shohib
Hussain opened his personal account for the
day. There was a second clean sheet in a row
for Andrew Lewis – things were looking up for
Maidenhead.
