60 mins - Ball into box from Woodley Phil completely missed the line of it before it was tapped in at back post by Woodley's Michael Clarke. 1-1

75 mins - Chappell through ball to Fitzy who was clean through but he took too wide an angle to round the keeper and his shot hit a defender who blocked his line to goal.
