Away to Risborough gets Reds first point of the season

An away fixture to Risborough Rangers resulted in a thrilling 3-3 draw.

Baldock went on the score sheet first in the 8th minute when loanee from Hitchin Callum Donnelly scored.

Jack Farmer made a sterling save minutes later and then Baldock went 0-2 up when Harry Holland scored by lobbing the keeper.

Marcus Wylie scored for the home team Risborough on the 27th minute of the game and at half time the teams went in 1-2

In the second half, Risborough upped their game and on the 59th minute scored their second goal to make it 2-2. Both teams missed some chances, but Baldock seemed to have the upper edge that was until Risborough scored their 3rd goal.

"How Harry hasn't got 6 or 7 goals is beyond me" muttered the chairman puffing on his vape as Harry had hit the post. But then Baldock were awarded a penalty and Harry Holland scored the equaliser.

Baldock had chances but then so did Risborough.

We always have a good laugh with Risborough, one of our favourite teams to play in the league. We always wish them well and look forward to seeing them later on in the season at Lambs Meadow.
