Real Milan 3 Uxbridge Park Rangers 3
Real Milan stretched their impressive unbeaten run to four games, with a thrilling 3-3 draw with league leaders Uxbridge Park Rangers. But they should really have taken all three points.
Uxbridge came in to the match with 3 wins out of three, but Milan were in the mood to end that run. After just 5 minutes, Josh Lake latched on to a brilliant Louis Martinho through ball to put the hosts one up, with a deft lob. Uxbridge quickly showed why they are top and replyed instantly from the kick off and then took the lead 5 minutes later! Thankfully Ashley Kang was having an inspired day and his shot from just out side the area, following great work by Danny O'Sullivan, flew inside the near post.2-2. Real then took over and the Rangers 'keeper pulled off some great saves. Then, unbelievably Kang waltz round seven players, and after what seemed an eternity, whacked it into the back of the net 3-2! Half-Time came with Real well in command and Tom Emery was brought on for Kevin Long, who did very well, to add a bit more bite.
In the second half, the Whites continued where they left off the first, and with Anthony MacCarroll impressive in goal and Jack Evans and Ricky Wheeler solid in defence, Uxbridge were reduced to long range efforts. Real made some further changes, bringing on Scott Lawrie for Anthony Gardner, Harley MacAuley for Josh Lake, and Sam Haggerty for Danny O'Sullivan. All three substituted players had worked extremley hard, and Danny at times played some delightful football.
With Milan pressing for the killer fourth, a moments hesitancy in defence let in the UPR forward who sneaked an equaliser 10 minutes from time. Real then threw everything forward and Kang nearly snatched it late on. but the game ended 3 all.
A word about Anthony Gardner who for the last two weeks has worked his socks off with little reward. Sooner or later hes going to get a Hat Trick, keep your head up Ant.
Excellent performance by the referee Mr Darren Smith, who explained all his decisions to the players, and kept the game flowing.
Ricky Wheeler, who scored that fantastic goal last week, was Man of the Match for Real.
