League Cup Match

Morwenstow 3      Bude 3 

The second derby between these two again finished even with an exciting game. Bude opened the scoring when Dan Midelton broke the home defence on the edge of the box and smashed the ball down the middle of the goal.  Morwenstow replied on 20 minutes when a long ball to striker Djamel Boushala was headed back just outside the box and Eddie Yeo shot first time giving keeper Gary Dinshaw no chance.  Bude lost their shape, their heads went down, and after 35 mins were three-one down, Herbie Goodgroves getting down the right delivering a perfect cross which Danny Gifford scored with a diving header, and their third was scored with an Adam James header from a set piece. Bude pulled one back just before half time when Midelton and Steve Box linked well and saw Box put in on goal to score inside the near post.  On the hour Moostow looked to have extended their lead when a shot was spilled low by Dinshaw to Boushala who scored but he was ruled offside and the goal was disallowed.  Boushala continued to argue his case for the next few minutes and was then red carded by the ref for abusive language towards the linesman.  Bude had enough chances in the last 20 minutes to comfortably win the game with Liam Sandercock, Dan Starkey and Midelton all coming close but the home keeper was in superb form.  With the points looking to be heading to 'The Greens', Goodgroves brought down Steve Box inside the area.  Norman Foster equalised from the spot with minutes left in what ended a fairly even contest.
