Disjointed City display leads to first defeat

City got off to a shaky start and never really played their normal flowing football on a fine sunny morning in Buckhurst Hill.
Right back Bradley Buscall left the field with a bad injury after a crunching tackle that also left the other boy needing treatment. Brad's injury resulted in his wound having stitches at the hospital.

City threatened in patches and a goal just before half time looked to have settled City down and got them playing good football again.

However, Buckhurst Hill put in a determined second half display and were rewarded with two goals that clinched the game.

City had chances and thought they had scored at one point only to be overruled by the ref who said the ball had not crossed the line.
