Heavy rain and swirling wind throughout the game but both team still attempted to play football. Both teams joined the senior division this season, so expected a close game however quite obvious that the visitors were much the better team when it came to attacking. They took the lead on 6 minutes however Gosfield were back on level terms after 18 minutes. The visitors missed a number of good chances before adding further goals on 22 and 41 minutes.
