Q Cornwall Leisure Veterans League 30th Sept


Recommended Posts

Saltash Utd 2 Royal Par 2. With both teams harbouring designs on finishing in the top 7 of Division 2 of the Vets League this fixture was always going to be competitive and so it proved as they battled it out in a 2-2 draw. Saltash passed the ball round well and were certainly prettier on the eye but only in a footballing sense, Royal Par resolute, content to soak up pressure and look to sneak a goal from a set piece. 0-0 HT. 2 minutes into the second half the away side broke the deadlock when Kevin Allen put through one on one calmly lifted the ball over the on rushing keeper. Within 15 minutes Saltash went ahead, a well placed long shot and penalty giving them a 2-1 lead. Within 5 minutes Royal Par equalised, a flicked on header allowed Kevin Allen to once again race clear and finish with aplomb. On the balance of play perhaps Saltash may have a case for the 3 points though for all their obvious quality they didn't create many chances. Royal Par no longer have a soft under belly though several of the squad appear to carry one. Enjoyable morning of football, Saltash's version of Chilli (with chips) far better than ours and we will be looking to transfer their cook with ours as soon as the transfer window is open.
