Dateline 31st October 2015
NRFC 1 SARABURI 1
In front of what I estimate to be a lowly 15 000 attendance
at the 80th Anniversary Stadium, the Swatcats extended their
unbeaten run to nine games. The Red Knights were cheered on by a pretty high
turnout of away fans – well done to them!!
The first half saw
the home side pressing effectively but unable to convert the final pass.
Saraburi raided forward sporadically and looked dangerous on the break. As the
first half ended the home team created a couple of chances but the half ended
in a 0-0 stalemate.
In the second half, a speculative Lee Tuck shot looped over
the keeper to give the home team a deserved first lead. The men in orange
continued to press and chances came but again the threat of the Red Knights on
the break was plain to see.
The inevitable eventually happened and a well worked goal
gave the Saraburi team probably a deserved and valuable away point.
In conclusion a decent performance from the home team,
matched in spirit and adventure by their struggling neigbours. On this
performance The Red Knights have a decent chance of jousting with the big boys
next season – best of luck to them, I hope they stay up.
