HARTLEPOOL UNITED 1-1 WEALDSTONE | National League highlights | 24th August 2024

was AC cross into the area shortly before that oh Wilson have given it away to Campbell now diu looks to try and dig the ball out of his feet it might fall for manini the offside flag doesn't come and the shot is smothered at the front post Archie Matthews was able to gather it from inside his sixy area as manini and intercept the PS clear but again it's straight to a yellow shirt so forward come the stones once through the center of the pitch now Mason drifting out to this left hand side and PS in a good shape and just trying to soak up some of this pressure Midway through the first half low ball in the penalty area that goes behind him rebounds up off of M B by wi still it's Portsmouth retaken the lead against middlesbor in the championship so Portsmouth two Middlesboro one Michael abir looking for a cross inside the area it is a good one but it's over the head of Callum C out for a goal kick just a reminder from the stores of the threat that they possess yeah I've been really impressed with the front to for Wilston B win get out and is risky at times and they'll give the ball away at time but it's obviously how Taylor wants him to player and it's good to watch as well isn't it the way they do it and they just hit a beautiful diagonal ball towards cret Mo's done really well to keep it in on the by line cuts it back inside the area and it's in it's maker a BW but the goal was crafted by the hard work from Max kretchma on the by line slid in when it looked like it was going out for a goal kick the Endeavor from him to keep it in on the by line cut it back to a BW who rolled it into the back of the net and Harley poool United concede their first call in the National League this season and it's at home against Wilston pools nil Wilston W after to say Rob it's been coming hasn't it I think if any team were were looking like scoring it was going to be Wilson it was just a ball laid down the left the yellow shirts have the momentum SE it low into the penalty here it bubbles all the way through on the 18 yd line to georgu closed down by two blue and white shirts and waterfall just stabs it away from inside the Box but back it comes CE Lo the sixy box once again and it's smothered Down Low by Dixon it remains PS nil Wilson W but the visitors are in the ascendency Mickey Baron yeah there certainly are and it was a great ball across the Box Dixon's come well they come and get TR boss pointed in the summer coupled with the news that the club would transition to a hybrid training model to take them away from a part-time setup and okay it hasn't been the the ideal start for the campaign but it started well here Sharon shot from distance it just go wide to the right hand PA and that is the final action of the first half so at the break it's Harley pool United nil Wiston won the Breakthrough coming on the 38th minute when a diagonal ball split the and gray inside the area now Mancini back to gr tries to find manini once more back to fer and man can he finish he said he tries to pass towards G manini still might get a chance but he's fallen down inside the penalty area nothing given from the referee and it's out for a pool's throw down got two yellow shirts around him he finds featherston now Hunter back to Ferguson on this left hand side P's attacking infield now for featherson who has space finds Sharon back to gray now FEA into deru we play on As Hunter can't settle the ball down inside the penalty area and it comes back to manini Ferguson into the area comes all the way through to Freeman who misses it and it drops out of PlayOn on Derby County La can I ask you a question Rob why can't Manny get into the game why well he might get now Sharon L shot but saved at the front post by Archie Matthews a comfortable save in the end Manny der zeru was there inside the area but he was being watched every step of the way by Jack cook so Sharon went by himself to comfortable save in the end it's an Tom Parks pulling the ball out from the back finds Ferguson has a bit of space to run into he been quickly CLA down the pass takes a wick flection man d a goes down inside the area and the referee shakes his head and there's some concern here for the Wilson Defender I think it's C isn't it number you're right wasn't aeny old and he comes on for the final 12 minutes free kick to Wiston D into the penalty area towards Clark towards cook who goes down the referee thought about a whistle instead he chose not to and PS potentially got away with it being closed down by Hutchinson there but gets back to Dixon Dixon goes long looking for Desaru controls it well chest deru the shot is palmed Away by fantastic arjie Matthews what a strike from deru the move is still alive with sluger in the by line who crosses blocked and that has just lifted everybody inside the ground yeah it was a it was just a long ball in a man he's done well just to control it as he's dropped his he steep away from himself s minutes we're into it now Freeman with a diagonal looking for waterfall down to featherston inside the air just gets the ball taken away from him but he still has it featherston back to Robinson featherston once more looks to try and dumy past his man and he does he fights his way through into the area for dis it's a n on the goal line not once but twice and then Freeman with a shot from distance but what defending from Wiston throwing bodies at it there yellow card in there as well yeah I think it's for d for comping to the LI I think Down's attacking with featherston out to Ferguson on this left hand side he delivers him that's a good cross into the penalty area it bounces doesn't fall for Sharon it might for featherston now Freeman with his shot that's saved by Archie Matthews and he's kept hold of it he stopped it from going behind for a corner it looked like that was going to be the moment but pools denied by Freeman by Archie Matthews in the opposition goal during stoppage time Darren St waving everybody forward this is it long It Go might be in can he [Applause] finish and he scores The Equalizer in the final second of the game to snatch a drop from the jaws of defeat and it's all reliable but it is a r to open this account for the campaign and what a way to do it a lofted ball forward he got in between the center backs in on goal and he just guided it past Archie Matthews what a way to open your account for the campaign Manny Desaru it's pulls one it's W early he just turned your radio on a winner is there a winner Joel Dixon goes along once again this will be something the flicked on he header from slog it and there is a fulltime whistle a dramatic end to this game Harley po United snatch a draw from the jaws of defeat they went behind in the first half one diagonal that ended up at the by line a sliding Challenge from Max ketma to win it on the by line C it back for M abiro who finished neatly inside the area and in the second half pools really struggle to find their Rhythm and find any real momentum or pattern pattern of play but
