League Match
Bude 3
Camelford 1
Bude produced the best chances during
the opening 20 minutes, but failed to capitalise in front of goal,
Camelford though opened the scoring with their first real chance midway
through the half when the Bude defence tried to scramble the ball away
from inside their box, but a Camelford player picked the ball up and
squared it back across the goal to striker Jason Rash who made no mistake
from close range. Bude equalised after 40 mins when midfielder Chris
Ward played in Billy Hopcroft who smashed the ball down the middle of the
goal from 20 yards out. After an even start to the second half, Bude
took the lead when Shane Looker struck a sweet strike from 30 yards out
which saw the visiting keeper tip well on to the bar, the alert
Norman Foster however arrived to slot in the rebound. Both sides
continued open attacking football and there always looked like another
goal was going to come from one of the teams. Budes' Hopcroft was
brought down in the box for a penalty, and he duly stepped up to tuck away
the penalty and stretch Budes' lead with 10 mins left. Camelford
continued to come at Bude but some stern defending from Wayne Cornish and
Dan Starkey in the centre of defence helped keep them at bay and earn Bude
their first win of the campaign..
