Wormley 3 - 2 WAFC
The vets made the short trip to Wormley fc for a hastely arranged friendly and come away with there first defeat of the season. A very lacklustre first 30 minutes from the old Abbotts gave them a mountain to climb.
After being 3-0 down halfway through the first half an excellent individual goal from Trevor Anderson reduced the scoreline to 3-1 at half time.
The second half was a different matter with old Abbotts taking more of the game to the home side and reducing the scoreline again was
Paul Mitchell with a neat header into the bottom corner.After this there was 5 minutes remaining and the Abbotts push forward looking for the draw, a great chance was missed and defeat follwed shortly after.
