Broadland Exiles Mens 1s Vs Bury St Edmunds 4

East Men’s Hockey League

Division 5 (North East)

Norwich Exiles  0     Bury IV  2

On another day Broadland might have finished the first half with a goal or two advantage.  As it was, Bury IV got the vital breakthrough just minutes before the break when a penalty corner strike came off a defender’s stick, hit the edge of the post and unfortunately went in.  Broadland continued to press for an equaliser but failed to connect with the ball on a number of occasions when ideally placed.  With minutes remaining Bury put the result beyond Broadland’s reach when a muddle in their rear guard left their keeper exposed, allowing the Bury player to get an unstoppable shot away.
