All about the 'Beast'

Sunday 3 December 2017, Wycombe Wanderers 3 Leatherhead 1- FA Cup Round 2, Adams Park



Often we go on about fans of big clubs not caring about the FA Cup, but it seems not all lower league fans are that keen on shelving out cash to see another game, very few Wycombe fans at the game and those who did turn up were out sung by the brilliant Leatherhead fans.



Football wise Leatherhead took an early lead from a disputed penalty but after the the ref struggles to control the game, too many needless yellow cards, not that he was helped by the antics of one of the Leatherhead forwards, who was very quick to go to ground.



Wycombe got back on terms with a great free kick but they knew they were fortunate to go in at the break on level terms.

Second half and fitness told as Wycombe got on top and then took the lead after a fantastic bit of skill from the 'Beast' - Adebayo Akinfenwa - the game got easier for the home team after the Leatherhead player-manager got a second yellow and an early bath.



The game ended with a fantastic final goal from the 'Beast' - it turned out to be his day!
