MAGDALA PAY THE PENALTY

Notts Senior League
Senior Division
WOLLATON FC 3 MAGDALA AMATUERS FC 0
 
After last week's shock Cup exit to FC Samba, Wollaton's new management team were hoping to pull their club out the bottom two of their league table. Today they face mid table Magdala Amateurs. It was quite clear from the kick off that Wollaton were more up for the game. As early as 5 minutes, they were awarded a penalty after a push in the area, CHRIS ATKINS stepped up and blasted the ball in to the net.
 
Wollaton continued to push forward and should have gone 2-0 up when missin from close range on a couple of occasions. The game then went away from the visitors as they lost their discipline during a 5 minute spell. The away keeper pushed the home attacker and picked up a yellow card and CHRIS ATKINS dispatched his second penalty of the game after 37 minutes. On 42 minutes, the senior Magdala attacker kicked out in front of the referee, which gave the ref no choice but to get out the red card.
 
The second half started a lot more even and Magdala had a couple of long range chances to cut the arrears and after 54 minutes, saw a shot bounce off the inside of the post.
 
On 56 minutes, a quick attack by the Homesters, saw a ball whipped in from the right wing to the far post where MARK MIDDLETON headed home from about 15 yards out.
 
Ten minutes from time and Wollaton were awarded a third penalty, when the visiting keeper bought down a home forward and was duly shown a second yellow card. Up stepped Atkins for his hat-trick of penalties but the Magdala stand in keeper saved with his legs.
