The matches are coming in quick succession at the moment as we have so many games to catch up on. The first came against league leaders Littlehampton, and it was lovely and sunny at their ground in Rustington for this crunch match.
First Half
The first half was very even and Predators soaked up the Littlehampton pressure well, also creating a few chances of their own.
It was Littlehampton who went ahead though, catching Preds on the break with a well taken shot, which flew past Ryan into the corner of the net.
Half Time : Littlehampton 1 – Predators 0
Second Half
There was little to choose between the teams in the second half with chances at both ends. Both teams made substitutions to try and find a breakthrough, but it remained tense and competitive.
Littlehampton looked destined to extend their lead with the ball heading towards a gaping goal but Maciek somehow threw his body in the way and forced the ball behind for a corner.
Littlehampton also hit the crossbar when one of their shots beat Ryan, and then near the end Predators did the same, just when the away fans thought they’d got the equaliser they deserved.
It ended with just a single goal win for Littlehampton but it was a superb performance by Predators who should be very proud of themselves.
