[Music] important game for woking may not be making break but they certainly need to get a decent result here today at the lway it's great seeing two Banks of young kids out there as a sort of guard of honor and they're so excited probably they'll never forget this you know the day they got on the woking pitch and uh and uh it's it's great to see youngsters involved like that that's right a lot of traveling fans have come all the way down from Harley pool I was listening to a few of the fans talking outside the stadium get a sense of the atmosphere here inside the lweight yeah I was talking to a few of the away fans 250 or so have come down from Harley they do bring a decent contingent with them on the travels and they'll be in fine voice off to our right hand side so the tides have lined up ready for the start here woking shooting from left to right towards the big stand they're wearing the red and white shirts black shorts white socks harleypool United in their dark blue and teal shirts white shorts and dark blue and teal socks underway Under The Lights here we go ronance getting in the way trying to win the ball comes down at the moment to Big clearance there from Kelly Evans he plays it down to the right hand side and down onto the deck immediately free kick for woking as Lewis Walker gets taken out around 10 yards inside the harleypool half first two times harleypool got the ball there they the back they just launched a high high kicks right to the front sort [Applause] of away early down the right hand side is Jaden Luca he rolls it back and the cross comes in early cross the header is one and then flicked Away by the harle ball Defender but it's not gone far and then a snatched shot just there inside the sixy Box off to the right hand side should have hit the back of the net should at least tested the goalkeeper and he squished It Wide in great work by LCA then Curtis Edwards with the ball over Scott cuth but then a great header to the far post and fell to I think it was Ricky called B who did snatch a bit and went wide and uh a good early opportunity and would have liked to have got that on the goal could have been a dream start there for the cards goal kick header won by woking the ball just inside the harleypool half they're trying to get the ball down now woking have it on the left hand side Casey the captain left footed lays it off he's looking for it back but the cross comes in left fo over the top from Lewis and the header is won by harleypool United and they do clear it but it is bobbling around a fair bit Rowan is now getting involved he's won the ball lays it off to the right hand side little give and go there first time really taking a look at Kelly Evans he's small in size he's a little Whi it though isn't he in yeah he is he's so I yeah he's always been a fan favorite I think whatever Club he's been at because he he gives it everything he's small against much bigger players and uh makes his presence felt well hard launching that one there from the left back position that was one of those one you just kind of look up and Wallop it that was David Ferguson the captain smashed it long straight to the woken keeper Alexis Andre Jr but woking have it back down the other end Haro in control though as it goes back to their goalkeeper Joel Dixon clears it long moving around moment Josh Casey rolls that back to the keeper big game for Rowan in this he's uh T jaakola is suspended for this game and uh it's position like play similar positions yeah thanks very much Tim we are three minutes into this one it's still nil nil but my word could be 1 n to woking 2 minutes in coroa just inside the sixy Box off to the right hand side came down to him and he kicked it really quickly he had to rush it and unfortunately went wide of the post should at least have tested the goalkeeper but we were expecting to see the net bulge but here we are 3 minutes in it's still nil nil sorry that upate on the radio in really stepping in for tacola and this sort of like position for light they both do a similar job chinola has been absolutely bril and some say he one of the first names on the on the sheet but has been out of favor but everyone every working knows knows what he oh and heartly pull through edge of the area and the player just stood on the ball when he really should have had a shot off there that was Courtney senior the little right hand side Winger where he's attacker really but he's out on the right hand side for Harley paol United and he burst through there and he got through way too easily for woking point of view and that was a wasn't he cuz he just Trot on the ball when he could have taken a touch it was remarkably simple coming through really I think he took the defense his Pace to the defense by surprise he he powered past the Defenders and then as you say Trot on the ball just as he would have been about to pull the trigger so a let off a woking so we had two two clear opportunities of both one of one of each end now yeah it's a really good atmosphere inside the law Community Stadium as well the fans really getting behind both sets of of sides really but the woking fans you can imagine that was a beautiful ball just played across there over to the left hand side and now Josh Casey brings it Forward he's Midway into the harleypool half he crosses it Ball but it's been cleared away straight away and goes I thought it was going to go out of play here on this side but no gray has it he tucks it inside nicely done brilliant little touch there by cook he rolls it on to the the striker desua off to the right hand side har will have it on the edge of the woking area but they're still keeping it he looks up plays it across to the left hand side and it's taken down once again by by c and off to the left hand side the cross comes in and Cur with a very very important header clears that one but har will still have it Midway in the woking half been forced to play it back now and good closing by coroa just forced the issue turned the play around and maybe to of sting out the harle pole attack there're still on it though on the right hand side way too much space harle on the edge of the area the cross is coming in it's a deep cross but a nice headed clearance there by Max D and then hoofed very very high in the air the ball's hanging down couple of worrying moments there though for woking yeah yeah Harley qu have scored a lot of goals this season they are a good attacking side been defense that's been their Achilles here and um just uh Walker going in hard they're a little bit late but players carried on referee way play on yeah he allowed the play to go cuz Harley had the ball it was a bit of a late challenge as you say but no real intent there's no way he's going to injure the play just slid in it's fast isn't it both teams really ated in these first five minutes it's always quite good though when you've got one manager who's a striker and one manager that's a midfielder they're not defensiv minded as Hardley P have on the overlap the cross has coming it's been turned into the back of the net and we're only 6 minutes into the game the cross came in almost from nothing and a little flick there and the ball ended up past the keeper who was diving off to his left hand side it just flashed past him in Nicholson there was nothing he could do no no they got space down the left and uh and should get a hard ball in over and uh well worked goal but again as we've seen a number of times this season working now with something to do Joel gray was the the scorer there beautiful ball across from the left hand side and just flicked it past the the oncoming Defender really nothing they could do it was such a quick attack in there was so fast the movement was was just so so decisive yeah and they got numbers into the box as well which uh and and gray was on there and uh nipped in between a couple of Defenders to to slip it home yeah it was something that I'm sure the manager Kevin Phillips would love from his his Striker days there just read the ball beautifully and it was a dangerous moment before where Scott cord managed to clear it but there was nothing that he could do with that one there not even sure they were caught flat it was just a brilliant move from harleypool United they were so quick and Ian was saying just a few moments ago the pace of this one it started it's been a very very Lively game here inside the L we only 8 minutes into it and it is woking nil Haro United one good interception by Joe gray the scorer off to the right hand side just on the halfway line Haro in possession he playing it around now Haro just taking the sting out of this and it's a ball put forward a very deep pass but forward looks like they're trying to get in above and over the back aren't they they're trying to use the pace yeah good mix up of play really one minute you're going they're going down wide and uh getting the ball in and then then it's the quick ball forward to the fast men up from ball out to the left hand side we're going to go live on BBC Radio in just a few moments BBC Radio sorry yeah thanks very much Tim we are 8 minutes into this one it has been a very very Lively start both sides really going at it mentioned to you earlier on that coroa really could have scored and should have scored from around six yards out well then Senior almost scored for harle but Trot on the ball on the edge of the area and that was cleared away and a few moments later 8 minutes in a brilliant ball flashed across from the left hand side a real counterattacking move from harle United it was turned in by Joe gray nothing the keeper could do and after 8 minutes it is woking nil Haro United W bouncing clearance there from the Haro keeper and flicked high up in the air from the woken Defender but Haro back on the attack down the wing and C is going to let this one run back to the keeper but they are trying to get these balls into the channels they are they are and uh they're buzzing around their tails are up at the moment Hardley PA woki have struggled to get anything really going in in the opposition half of the pitch closed down very quickly Rowan ins now has it he looks up plays it to the right hand side little buzzing around isn't he Kelly Evans the new signing but Haro managed to clear away the cross in and is put to the left hand side now harle Come Away with the ball and they flick it long and he's missed the Flight of the ball there the defender but K manages to roll it back to the keeper who's just outside of his area he plays it back to the left hand [Applause] side Max D looks up and plays the ball straight into the arms of Joel Dixon the Haro United keeper yeah a couple of times down Max D has over hit a ball that's just gone straight out for a goal kick Mis control there by Rowan in ball bounced and kind of flicked off his shin and has gone to the right hand side to the very very Speedy Courtney senior who then well he thought he was being held up but it was good defending by Josh Casey he's got the better of him on that occasion just there and that's something he's going to have to do a fair B going to say it's going to be a testing afternoon for Josh Casey well he's come up against a lot of Speedy attackers in his time so I'm sure he'll work out a way of doing it but it's uh cour is definitely fast he's absolutely on it when he gets going he's so quick his acceleration is incredible he' be kicking himself for treading on the ball when he was on the edge of the area around about 5 minutes into the game cuz he could have opened the the account for Haro United here only had to wait a couple of minutes beyond that but we are now 12 minutes into this run into the 12th minute anyway and woking Havoc dancing around just on the right hand side was Jaden l the ball was passed onto him by Kelly Evans but it goes out for a throw in two woking and it's taken fairly early and now a bit of an arm wrestle there on the edge of the area and it's the Haro United player that wins the ball back but ronance looks up can he put the ball in no he puts it to the right hand side nice little move steps in steps out on a left foot strike from the edge of the area is cleared it rebounds off the harleypool United Defender and woken back in possession of the ball but they can't seem to get it down but there he goes Kelly Evans just overruns it on the right hand side couldn't get it under control could in but it was a a good opportunity for woking when Row in looked up a bit better from woking there getting a little bit of uh possession where it matters but uh unable to really there was a shot coming in I think it was Ricky coo but that was well blocked nothing else that really threatened the goal yeah it was a really nice block actually cuz he he was on the right hand side left footed He was about to swing one in Mo Salah style wasn't he but it was just deflected and cleared away long clearance from The Keeper from the goal kick and the header Was Won by the harpool United Striker Desu 16 goals to his name so far this season for harle United in the league he is lethal up front he's a big imposing figure as well isn't he he is and he also did very well when he was with Halifax against woking he's just yeah he has got that presence and this is probably I think his most consistent season in terms of appearances and goal scored well on the left hand side woking har it the cross comes in oh and just cleared away from around the six yd line on the in the Box on the edge of the Box really it was cleared away and it was a threatening ball from the left hand side nice touch though Here Comes The Working Defender Kelly Evans and the free kick is it an offside I'm not sure a free kick is given anyway I think he probably was a little bit late going in and probably caught the player it wasn't malicious and the player just got straight up but it it probably was a free kick it's when you see players like Dion Kelly Evans for woking and you see Courtney senior for harol he just realized that some players have got incredible acceleration absolutely turn a heel and they just get gone and you can't see them it's like Billy whiz anyway it is free kick for harleypool United and it's won by Kelly Evans who puts it forward but intercepted by the harleypool United defense Defender flicked off to the left hand side Josh Casey has to volley it first time nicely controlled by Haro United Tom Crawford he rolls it back n plays it back in fact into their own half and it rolls all the way back now to Harley United keeper har United still in possession on the edge of their area here they come again harle United on the left hand side a little flick pass he looked like he may have been offside to me and yes the flag does go up the second he touched the ball yeah as ever with the the new way that liesman do it your hearts in your mouth aren't you till the flag goes up but yeah he looked well offside though nice little flick pass down the left hand side it was a good idea but he just went a bit too early or the player played it a bit too late whichever way you want to look at it it is a free kick to woken they take it early keeper plays it off to the left hand side and Ronin has it in the center he looks up to the left and it was a a telegraph pass really and it was easily cut out by the har bore United player and goes for a woking throw in right on the halfway line 16th minute of the game woking nil harle ball United one Bren Lucas in Nicholson here at the lweight community Stadium Scott Kasper on the ball for woking he looks up rolls his foot over the ball looks up again and plays a long ball diagonally left and it was intercepted by heart ball player but falls to the fit at the foot of Ricky coroa who then plays a nice ball in across to the other side but it's too long as well and they look like he just tried to use his body there to to maybe check the player turn and go but unfortunately misre the Flight of the ball and it goes out for a goal kick to Harley ball United another big test today for Jaden Luca just finding his feet in men's football and uh he's been so impressive but every game is going to give him new lessons to learn new challenges and uh again to today very fast and very physical here they come harle United again and nicely controlled but Rowan in gets involved as well and he starts to cut that one out and plays the ball straight down the middle nicely taken and off to the right hand side and it is Kelly Evans who has it he's gone round one man and the M oh he just comes in and smashed him shoulder barge into the side of him just there and I don't know in I see that kind of defensive move on the ball he wasn't playing the ball at all he's just trying to use his weight and push Kelly Evans off the ball I if it's shoulders to shoulder that's kind of fair but you got to go for the ball at least you can't just you can't just wall up the guy off the ball surely he used to be able to you used to be I used to be able to run into the goalkeeper though couldn't you those are the days when the keeper wasn't protected anyway here's harle United on the ball just inside their own half though on the left hand side they look up Ferguson plays it back first time ball though that's easily dealt with by Max D who just looks to his keeper and it rolls back to Alexis Andre Jr who plays it straight back to Max D he looks up plays a diagonal ball with his right foot but it's easily cut out by the Haro United captain and then a misplaced pass and it's almost gone down for a corner kick but it is a throw into woking around about two yards inside from the baseline or the by line even been too involved in tennis recently anyway there's a throw in coroa Parks Evans that Kelly Evans even and then an offside and that was an unnecessary offside I I'm not really sure how he allowed himself to drift into that position just there Jaden Luca 19th minute of the game woking nil harleypool United one main chances have gone to harle United there's a big chance early on for Ricky coroa from around six yards out but that long clearance has come down and hardle United trying to wrestle the ball and nice little onew just there and coroa puts it off to the left hand side and moving forward is Den Lewis trying to close it down the keeper though plays back to the keeper he sends it long and then Scott cuff but a very big header just there controlled it brilliantly plays it off Jaden Luca looks up rolls it to D just inside the harball United half but the interception stepping in front of Josh Casey har United you feel are in control at the moment don't you in that W to try something slightly different yeah working are they they they're they're working away and they you know they're getting few half opportunities but nothing really decisive I think we're going to be going live on BBC Radio s in just a few moments yeah thanks Tim well Harley po United very much in control it's still 1-0 from that really nice goal by Joe gray on the eighth minute we're in the 20th minute right now harle have it just on the left hand side a cross has come in but cleared Away by Scott CER woking are trying to force the issue but harleypool just cutting everything out at the moment then playing some really dangerous balls down the channel but 20 minutes into it and it's still woking nil harpool United one Ferguson plays it down the left hand side cut out by Kelly Evans Ronin flicks it long controlled back to Luca now who sprays it off to the left and that was a beautiful ball by Luca just there and I think yes joshh Casey had to control it just with the top of his arm he'll argue it was his shoulder I think it was just at the top of his arm almost his armpit but yeah beautiful ball there from Luca just from nowhere switching it he as we saw with his goal on Tuesday he hits the ball so well with very little backlift and very little follow through he's just got a beautiful touch harleypool United have it still inside their own half but a early ball put through a long ball put through they are very direct aren't they harol United yeah B direct and uh you know woking they're certainly in this game and uh but we as we saw again in the BR uh Boren wood game going one- n down is a real challenge in this league because teams just then can defend having said that Harley P are still on the front foot other than their talismanic Striker Manuel Desu leading the line the three just behind him are fairly small in stature they're pretty nippy pretty fast and they rely on these balls put down the channels and then pushed in to the Center for deser but working are trying to cut each and every one of these moments out as harle still have possession Midway inside their own half crowd have gone a bit flat as well you need the the fans to start lifting the the noise here inside the lweight yes you do and it's uh the thing is with the with the form that woken had at home it it you know once woken go behind sometimes it's the players need to lift lift the uh lift the fans and get that get the passion going moments like that though by Scott CER he's a bit of a wall isn't he he's very hard to get past yeah he's been great in the last few weeks very solid very experienced he matched up with a few different uh Defenders alongside he's had Taylor he's had Wilkinson he's got D now so he's he's used to being moved around or having his defensive partner being moved around isn't he he is although he and D have done very well together D has a you know agility and Pace obviously not the experience of a cuet nicely intercepted by Rowan in this is more the Rowan in we saw last season Scott cuet winning the header though as the ball was flicked forward by harleypool United and a beautiful ball by Co put over the top and here they come oh and the header away just there it goes for a corner kick to woking that was a threatening move as Lewis Walker almost got on the end of yeah lovely little chip ball through and Walker with a Defender keeper coming out uh Defender just got there to head it clear and give away the corner it's going to be a left foot ins swinger from the right hand side it's going to be a short Corner cuthber takes a touch put back across there and then cleared away no worries for woken they still keep the possession Jaden LCA puts the ball over to the left hand side and it was a high boot it was a ho a fairly lowish head but it was definitely a high Boot and it looked like it caught the player as well yeah is that Curtis Edwards yeah or Scott cuthber it's one of the two is it they look very similar now it's Scott Scot cber yeah he'll be all right he'll be all right they they both have big shiny white domes don't they that's the and a well trimmed beard well trimmed beard there you go was a bit tricky from where we are to see under the lights here at the lwe community Stadium 24th minute of this is a free kick to woking around 10 yds outside of the harle box just off to the left hand side CBA is lining up in the box so it looks like it might be Curtis Edwards who's going to take this who's the other person scan taken a couple I'm just trying to is that Den Lewis I think I suspect it's going to be Edwards here it comes right footed into the Edge O and a bit of a push has come to the edge of the area though oh to miss control when the chance was almost begging for the player Miss control and here come harleypool United on the Counterattack and here they come playing the ball through oh it's going to be a one-on-one right now it is a one-on-one the shot comes in and a great save by Alexis Andre Jr down to his left hand side and Joe gray oneon-one with the keeper all he had to do is tuck it into the corner but all he had to do is get it past Alexis Andre Jr and he wasn't allowing that one to Nestle in the back of the net a great save by the woken keeper that was great football all around there and uh and uh it's a point where we should never say that but it's a point where they're in Midfield a little tapped ankle or something would probably been what the manager wanted uh but uh great save by Alexis I think Jaden Lua probably was the one that had the opportunity but he didn't quite take it and in comes the corner kick and it's a a head of one by Desu but over the crossbar and working we restart here probably take a little breather as well I imagine again you saw the pace there of the of the Harley pool Midfield and also the quality of Alexis Andre great clearance there by Alex Ono J and a misc control from the harle United Defender but somehow it doesn't land at a woking player's foot and again a deflected pass or a misplaced pass just misses out on its recipient was a woking player was hoping to get on the end of it but not quite there and Rowan in just read that one beautifully the control well was mis control by harpool United Rowan in plays it to the edge of the area the shot comes in and it just goes wide off to the left hand side and Lewis Walker well I think he thought that was going to Nestle in but it just went wide but Rowan ins the industry he just showed in that's the Rowan ins that working fans want to see and somehow went missing and uh he's done a couple of misplaced passes but his his break up of play and there it was was he moving forward and really with pace and really took on the defense and a good ball in which Walker hit first time just wide of the post very nice move from woken but really good to see Rowan in stepping up like as Ian was saying we're used to seeing him particularly last season in the woking shirt Harley P United have the ball once again woking starting to lift it a bit but harleypool threatening on the right hand side the ball is put across and a flick there and it still comes through and it's run wide almost ended up at the foot there of Emmanuel Desu but he couldn't quite reach it and he's got very long legs he couldn't quite reach it and Alexis Andre Jr shephered out for a goal kick yeah and as woking or attacking here it does leave spaces and uh hardly are looking to exploit that and they've had several very very near chances yeah that's right commendable from woking to be trying to break this one though early on they're trying to threaten aren't they trying to put Harley Paul United under pressure when you're the home team that's what you got to do you got to put the Wayside Under Pressure you can't allow them to dictate a great ball forward there by CBA and it still might fall to the foot of a woking player they're buzzing around aren't they now Den Lewis trying to get involved he's just moved up to the the central attacking position but I think he'll drift back out to the left hand side the central Defenders certainly look uncertain don't they Central Defenders fairly new Central defensive partnership for harlea United with parks and waterfall goes out for a goal kick but woking starting to threaten starting to ask questions a bit you get a sense that they could start using the overlap a bit more though rather than just trying to play it through the middle all the time but yeah they are I think I think yeah very very well go live on BBC Radio sorry in just a few moments for another update before they disappear off and we continue the coverage here on the BBC sport website and app har United habit just inside the working half you know we together we'll get it right won't we Tim it's fine yeah they are at home to Haro United and they have started to come back into the game since that early goal from harleypool United by gray they haven't really threatened too much one chance early on by coroa we mentioned six yards out in the second minute he didn't take it then down the other end Joe gray with a fantastic goal and a little Counterattack ball across from the left hand side flicked in but no real chances to mention I suppose Walker there's one to mention from woking just flashed his first time shot wide of the post they are starting to threaten but Haro United look very very dangerous on the Counterattack we're 29 minutes in it's woking nil heartley Paul United one and I have no idea how harri are doing I'm afraid throw into harle United on the right hand side shooting from right to left of harle United and here they come flicked in Cross from the right very dangerous and Josh carry wins the header but they're still going just Casey even wins the header still going though Harley ball United have it working trying to push them as quickly as they can and get on and press them as quickly as they can but you wonder normally we see around 18 to 20 minutes in the game that the players stop and have a little drink somebody goes down we've not seen that this evening it's a bit cooler though the air isn't it it is and I don't think that's uh I don't think that's Michael Doyle's style really I mean I'm sure if there was a certain situation it might go out but it it wasn't when Daren sa was manager it was almost like clockwork there'd be an injury at at 20 25 minutes yeah D sends it long taken down but har United play comes in nicely done natur by the working player and it goes out to the left hand side it was coroa who took one touch Mis control but managing to get it back and the cross comes in it's flashed across but straight into the arms of the harle United keeper nice idea though from the left hand side yeah working beginning to get a bit more possession and a bit more pressure uh albeit vulnerable on vulnerable as who said on the the harle PO Counterattack wouldn't be the first team that struggled on the harleypool United Counterattack that is for sure they look very very quick particularly the channels and a very dangerous striker in Desu up front as I say 16 goals to his name so far this season woking desperately hoping he doesn't add on to that tally here this evening it's a woking throw edge of the area short throw muscled off the ball no he's still going that's really nicely done by Jaden Luca but unfortunately loses possession and heartly B Come Away With It charged down harle will still have it though just inside their own half now deser ruway interception Jaden Luca is look very very very busy on his tracking back Jaden Luca he intercepts the ball but harti will win it back straight away the ball put out to the left hand side right on the halfway line Ferguson takes one touch and a a late challenge by Kelly Evans was a late Challenge and the player is still down on the grass he's not injured Ferguson it was it was just a late challenge it wasn't a dangerous challenge or anything like that it was the I don't think there's going to be a card I think it's going for the I think it's going for the second I don't think you really gave anything for that first one where Kelly Evans did catch the catch Ferguson not maliciously it's a heartley p is a second challenge as you say there wasn't given for the one on on Ferguson it was given for the one on Featherstone who's going to take it it's going to be right foot free kick he's going to put this right into the mixer as they say it in it comes edge of the area and Rowan in gets up and flicks that one away but only as far as a harle United player who puts it out to the right hand side and in comes the cross and the header is one and oh I'm not sure did that cross the line I don't know if it did it did cross the line the referee is saying well the header came in and Alex Alexis Andre Jor died down to his right hand side he gathered it in fact it's a free kick he gathered it it looked like it spilled into the back of the net just over the line but he grabbed it back grappled it back to the keeper forced it forwards we weren't sure the ref blew his whistle I think the harpool United players assumed the ref was told it across the line but it clearly didn't and a free kick was given and that was actually a really nice save by Alexis Andre Jr Brave down to his right hand side it was and it would be good to see that again because uh from here it did look like it went over the line but obviously we're a long long way away and uh but it was a great regardless the save was great he really got down well reflexes were extraordinary but now harle Port United have it on the edge of their own area they're playing the ball around now it's come back to their keeper it's looked Lively this game it's looked quick all time we've said how fast the pace has been and well that was almost 2-0 in a Flash and a bit of a warning sign for working of how quickly Harley pool United can switch things off yeah yeah and it was a it balling it was a it was really good header it's what you want from a header hit head hard and headit down low and Alexis Andre got got onto it really [Applause] well a throw to Haro United off to our right hand side Midway inside their own half it was actually a misplaced throw in he's got a second bite of the cherry and that cherry lands very much on the back of kobo's head on the top of kobo's head and goes out out for another throw in to Harley ball right on the halfway line been forced to take it quickly a nice chested bit of control and well cook puts it out to the right hand side first time a really nice pass har for United still come with it and the ball comes in again and it's flicked away coo is going to control it he's got a man straight on him though and he's held up Ferguson and a free kick to woking just delaying the move there from woking weren't allowed to get away cooa looked like he really wanted to get away and get himself down the right hand side but he was held up working have it on the left hand side now with d he looks up plays it all the way across to Cuff buts he takes a touch looks up Kelly Evans just inside their own half little flicked pass there by cbut but it's cut out by the heartall defender Edwards into the center to Jaden Luca who brings it Forward he looks up now it's Josh Casey back to Luca to Edwards D Luca knocking it around working but they're just inside the harle bore United half at the moment and Luca puts the ball forward and it's just cut out there would have been a lovely ball through as well Curtis Edwards plays It Forward Lewis Walker off to the left hand side little one touch passing now woki managed to get through this is a really nice move edge of the area now little one two flick but no it's been intercepted Here Come woking On The Edge six yards out the shot comes in a great save from the goalkeeper from almost Point Blank Range just there and now woken get the ball back but smashed straight at the goalkeeper from around about six yards [Applause] out and then I think a late challenge by gray on Kelly Evans my word in that was a chance wasn't it that was a great chance chance and it was a lot of that was down to Jaden Luca you know little intricate passes couldn't find the and then the couple of times the ball look as though it been lost and then it bobbled clear and then that final shot was on target but goalkeeper made himself big and uh block blocked the shot not even sure who it was who took the shot it was such a melee of players you couldn't quite work it out no really really was a pack penalty area it is a free kick to W just inside the harleypool half it's Edward who's going to take it and he flicks his long long free kick right onto the penalty spot on the header is one it comes down and well rather than smashing it it was tickled at the goalkeeper who managed to grab it I think it was dce who took the shot actually he just got his foot on it didn't get any power and it went straight into the hands of the awaiting goalkeeper either side of him that might have asked questions but couldn't get any power and the keeper fell to the floor like he just made a save of the sentury being an eventful half isn't it both ends yeah and woking certainly coming into it now in the last 5 minutes or so in the 38th minute is still woking near Haro United one Manuel Desu wins that header from the long clearance in the keeper but it's still a bit of ping pong Head tennis and well gray was asking for a free kick he said he felt the arm of Kelly Evans on his back and he certainly did I could see the arm on his back but it wasn't enough to put the player off the ref says and just gets him to to carry on with the game I think there's a bit of needling going on between gray and Kelly Evans well I suspect Kelly Evans he likes the needle as does Josh Casey maybe it's a fullback thing yeah they're a different breed aren't they it's gone out on the far side for a woking throw in 38th minute B Lucas and Ian Nicholson here bringing you the coverage from the lweight Community Stadium BBC Sports with updates earlier on on BBC Radio s and it's on the left hand side and I think Lewis is carrying it he's still got it he just turns back he's right footed predominantly nice little onew can he keep it in though he can he stands up the cross and the header comes in it's deflected I'm not even sure who that came off I think it may have come off a woking player and it was deflected away the keeper didn't have to make the save but woking is starting to threaten and Ron in has it he plays the ball inside this is lovely stuff from woking at the moment and coroa picks up the ball it goes out to the right hand side Kelly Evans lays it back to coroa couple of players around him Kelly Evans right by the corner flag and he smashes it against the harpool United Defender and it goes straight out for a woke throw and it's going to be Kelly Evans that takes it but this is much more like it from woking good spell play and uh started actually as from the back with Max D ringing winning a challenge against desire and uh then woken bringing the ball away Luca had it plays it off to the captain Casey on the left hand side to denan Lewis and then cleared away but cuet wins the header puts it back in again and a headed clearance once more and really nicely dealt with there by Scott C but rather than just heading It pointlessly Forward he flicked it back to the goalkeeper and allows wogen to start again Wen obviously wanting to build from the back and they're doing that more in this game and uh being a little bit patient getting the ball then to Curtis Edwards or Luca and Edwards who that's his natural position that sort of quarterback position with the long balls in all the short passes he he dictates that well Harley po United scored a lot of goals but they also concede a lot of goals they conceded 58 already this season although the story is slightly different under the new gaffer under Kevin Phillips who's only started four as a manager they've won two lost two scored four conceded four so it gives you an idea they've tightened things up at the back a little bit Haro United on a run of two wins in a row but they have conceded in every game he's managed so far two 2-1 victories on the bounce for harle United Kelly Evans has it he puts the cross in early and it's just missed the Target right on the edge of the area but harle hav't to flick the ball away a bit of Head tennis to get it away but Josh Casey looks up plays it to Lewis on the left hand side he's still going likes to go back onto his right foot and turn in he's played it back to Casey who's favored his left foot every time and then it goes and no one there where the ball went unfortunately it bounced and the keeper managed to grab it and again fall to the floor and just take the pressure off this heartly P side yeah W struggling they're getting the balls in but they're coming from quite deep they're struggling to get behind the behind the Defenders and then get the dangerous balls over but uh still it's been a lot better from work in this last 5 minutes or so with Kelly Evans playing that right back position on Coro on the right hand side and denan Lewis and Josh Casey on the left hand side there should be the opportunity for overlaps maybe that's something that the manager Michael D will be looking at in halim it's a throw in though to woking certainly the opportunities to do the overlaps but they seem to be closed down very quickly when they get into those positions harle boy United clear the ball it's now Scott cuthber plays it off to the right hand side to Kelly Evans he flicks the ball early bit of a tussle Coro trying to close this one down he closed down very very quickly but the ball was released and then free kick given for a late challenge by Co been some good good performances from the working side albe they are one n down albe they are struggling to find their way into the game but number of the players and as we've just been saying this last 10 or 15 minutes have sort of been growing into the game Luca has been more visible Lewis has been seeing more of the ball Rowan in has been I think his best half of the season for Rowan in I think he's been excellent as you said said earlier on a couple of misplaced passes for Rowan in but in the main he's been get himself around he's been reading the play he's made interceptions he's looked very very Lively which is good to see cber has looked as cth but always looks industrious strong tough energetic reads the ball well that is lovely interception by Lewis Walker who's now on the ball still he's still carrying it he plays it off to the left hand side Den Lewis has it just inside the area and he tries to flick a ball left footed we've seen him do that a few times haven't we this season just flick a nice little left foot ball over the top it was just closed down and it goes off for a corner kick to woking in the 43rd minute here at the lweight community Stadium great work by LS Walker the strength to come away from that come away the board he doesn't look the biggest and strongest but he certainly is he he's he does that role really well yeah he really does in comes the corner right footed inswinger and right onto the keeper and the ball's come down oh and a second gravity it from The Keeper there are so many players in and around the goalkeeper he couldn't get any free space I think he managed to get his hands to it bubbled to the floor and he managed to grab it the second chance it just needed a toe from a woking player and it would read one all on the scoreboard but it doesn't 44th minute and it's woking nil harleypool United won and if the first half hour was very strongly harleypool this last 15 minutes has been you know Wok Kings 15 minutes absolutely right nice turn there though by Haro United and they have it that's ruway it's been cleared by Rowan in he mopped that one up very nicely but it was Courtney Senor looks so Lively when he gets near that ball he's he's small but he's so so quick he almost Fades into the background when you don't uh know he's there cuz he's that small he's got these big bright orange boots on you need to be good if you got orange boots as we know Ferguson free on the left hand side they don't use him they stay in the center hard B on the attack Ronin picks it back up and he plays a nice little ball a short little ball little onew Den Lewis has it Returns the pass to jayen Luca who was caught late heels were clipped yeah just was a little bit soft really I but uh probably Lewis's Lewis's pass back wasn't the best and just caught uh Luca a little bit short but he was fouled wasn't much Pace in the past two Luca so it's hard for him to generate the the power from such a short range but woken starting to play the ball out really nicely Rowan in has it he looks up to the right hand side it's Kelly Evans back to Rowan ins all the way back to the halfway line and CET looks up and as we said earlier on woking look like they're desperately trying to build from the back each time cuz every time they make an inroad gets cut out they return it back to Cur to start it all over again Edwards to Ronin he looks up cross comes in and it's charged down by the Harley bort United midfielder and away they come and I didn't see on the board was it two minutes of time added on here at the end of the first half working nil heartall United one the goal coming in the eth minute when Joe gray flicked on a lovely left foot cross Here Comes Harley pole with Courtney senior on the right but it was flicked Away by by D and he manages to retrieve the ball and keep it going he sends it very very long but there's no one down there to greet in it's going to be met by the harle United keeper Joel Dixon he brings it back into his area because he could take as long as he likes here and just pick the ball up he's waiting to be closed down before he does it and then as Lewis Walker got near him he picks the ball up then rolls it back down on the floor again and delays play even further a long clearance in the keeper but Casey has it plays it long again but straight down the throat of Luke waterfall who heads it away and Rowan in wins this one down charges the the pass and on the left hand side Casey has it and passes it off to Jaden Luca and then the ref gives a free kick to Haro United for a bit of a entanglement of legs on the far side yeah Luca ran out of space really over there on the far touch line and uh couple of players around him and couldn't get his feet out from under him and uh eventually gave a free kick to harle as we move into the last 20 seconds give or take give or take if it's less than 20 seconds then it's something's gone wrong but yet here we are the final throws of this one and it's going to be a free kick taken by the pool's keeper Joel Dixon he sends it long well can just need to see this round while Rowan is flicks that one on and the whistle goes not the way that woking would like in this one with the cards trailing by a goal to nil at half time but I tell you what Ian in the last 15 minutes or so woking have started to find inres they have they had that great chance early on which fell to cor then uh really harly Paul came on very strong got the goal and uh it looked like it was going to be an awkward evening woking but then woki have really worked their way back into this and had a lot more possession made the chances and it just needs that bit of composure in front of goal and they'll be well back into this game we thought that maybe Haro United had scored a second goal when Alexis Andre Jr got down to his right and just stopped it on the line it looked like the ball just crossed the line and his reaction told you that he wasn't sure either that he managed to keep it out but the ref blew his whistle everyone thought it was 2-n turns out was a free kick that was the other opportunity really but well working up a couple of opportunities from around six yards out they have tested the goalkeeper but each time it's either gone wide or straight at him it has it has it's that you know you're you're just longing really for that clinical approach in front of goal for working to find that they've done so much quite well in this half but it's it's that sort of finishing that's uh it's probably being the bug bear but it's uh a long way to go and Michael Doyle will I'm sure earn his corner Hal time in looking to reorganize and remotivate the boys well I'm sure he will and we will disappear off for around 10 minutes or so we'll be back to bring you all the coverage of the second half here from the latwe Community Stadium but it finished at a half time woking nil Haro United [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] one welcome back to the lweight Community Stadium here on the outskirts of woking in s for this National League game between woking and harleypool United a flash goal a fantastic goal really from a harleypool United point of view from Joe gray on round about the e8th minute flicked in gave Harley pool United the lead it was only around 4 minutes or 5 minutes before that in fact that coroa had a fantastic chance of awoken that he just put one of the post well working have hued and puff and they have looked like they could create something here but harle ball currently have the lead it's about to kick off in the second half the players have come out and just have a look around at the moment to see if there are any changes it doesn't look like it from a cursory glance around himself B Lucas and Ian Nicholson bringing you the commentary Ian what do woking have to do in the second half to equalize n Win and don't say score more goals on the other team I think I I think it like a number of things really I think getting behind behind the defense will just opening them up the the balls in from out wide have being a bit easy for Harley pool to manage um I think also just continue playing as they were maybe in the last 15 minutes of the first half with and it looked like Luca Edwards and in were beginning to get the upper hand in Midfield and begin to build moves yeah well we are under way and it's ball put straight across by Edwards and flicked away and it's going to to be won very quickly by dice who looks up and he flicks it again left footed he sends it towards Den Lewis Rowan in takes it down then flicks the ball forward and it's going to have to be cleared Away by the Haro United Defender he gets it very very high and underway Josh Casey wins the header no one around him if the working player had gone for the ball it certainly would have gone for an offside so he delays the movement and harle United now have it back at the feet of their goalkeeper with woking shooting from right to left towards the the faithful off to the Terrace on the left hand side well King wearing the red and white shirts black shorts and the white socks Harley Paul United in their dark blue and teal shirts white shorts and dark blue and teal socks well woking have it on the left hand side Lewis has it in fact takes one touch he moves in with his right foot and he takes a shot and it just Zips off the turf that really dipped I'm not sure how he got such a dip on it but it zipped off the surface straight into the arms of the goalkeeper yeah positive start from in Curtis Edwards right into the back of the man as soon as he got the ball bit more bite in Midfield and I also saw Josh Casey hairing on the overlap when Lewis got the ball what I like to see with Den Lewis is him getting his head down and being more instinctive it's when he seems to slow things up that he he loses his way a bit but when he's instinctive he seems to be a real Menace yeah yeah he does and it's uh but he's a I would say he's a solid player in terms of you know he's a six out of 10 but you know has he got in in that that sort of the unexpected the moment of Genius that other players might have we'll we'll see well Josh Casey is just run all the way from his left back position and he need want to close down the goalkeeper and oh a misplaced header there from Scott C but doesn't often make mistakes and working a force into defensive position here on the edge of the area Harley have it they forced backwards nicely done actually there Rowan in now just closing that space down and what looked like it could be a bit of a threat from that misplace Scott cuthber header well they've closed it but now here come harle edge of the area once again and the ball comes across and it's going to be cleared Away by Curtis Edwards who looks up hoofed away towards Lewis Walker who has it and W can get the ball down on the deck and here comes Rowan in he plays it out first time to the right hand side and coroa has it he's running through one running through two a little flick defensive play there got the ball manages to roll out and I think it must have bounced back off of coro's foot because a bit of a Ricochet and it's gone from a goal kick but it was a good opportunity there for coboa to get his head down yeah yeah and on Tuesday he caused havoc in the Oxford City defense when he when he ran at the Defenders they couldn't really handle it and brought him down fouled him on one outside the area brought him down for a penalty on another point so he is good when he runs at defenses that's what you feel woking need to do is just get at the [Music] start asking questions of the the fullbacks particularly on the left hand side with Darren David Ferguson who is a bit older maybe a bit slower than the others around him perhaps I mean that's just an assumption by the look of him but he's been very very solid here come woken though and it is held up by Jaden Luca another sliding tackle here it's been a bit messy at the moment but they get the ball down and den Le has it he looks up he scampers around a bit puts it back to Curtis Edwards who plays a lovely ball out to the right hand side that was beautifully done controlled by Kelly Evans played to Cora continues on the overlap and that's the thing we didn't want to see woking do which is go backwards when they overlaps there di to Casey back to dice just inside the Harley B half he puts a very high ball through first time oh and the flag goes up for an offside there against Lewis Walker he's been caught offside a few times you find some porak amond very rarely got caught offside he he had that instinct to always be on side and it's always frustrating when when forwards are offside I mean it's obviously narrow narrow margins frustrating though a few moments ago because cooa had it it was a really nice bit of play with Kelly Evans we've been talking about this overlap and there was an opportunity coroa got it Evans continued past him on the right and he just turned his back and played it backwards which is a bit of a frustration we have looked at these potential opportunities on the wings ball played towards Den Lewis but a late Challenge on Jaden Luca and it is a woking free kick just inside their own half Lewis is looking off to the left hand side quite wide Edwards plays it oh to D heavy pass there back to him but he manages to control it and he brings it Forward back to Casey then sends it all the way back to D plays it across to Cuba the right hand side then to Kelly Evans inside to Luca Edwards has it he's waiting for the ball bit slow from working now it's all been slowed right down as D has it he looked up where's he going to put it well he turns back and plays it to Casey Casey little flick pass there but not enough on it and it goes out for a throw into harle United and woken got stuck there didn't they I they couldn't move anywhere they just kept playing it around in around 10 15 yard Square not to get out of it probing and looking which obviously you know at times that is needed and uh but you then need the the end result which is the explosive bit at the end and that that really failed when Josh case's ball was timed into touch I think that's what the words damp squib were intended for unfortunately but there's a high ball put through and dice is going to have to win this one and that was really nicely done actually because he couldn't get his head on it but managed to get his left foot on it and clear it away Harley PA Havoc just inside the woking half in fact a menacing run from their number 10 Callum cook but it goes out for a woking throw 52nd minute of the game it's not a throw sorry it's a goal kick [Music] game's gone very quiet again hasn't it it certainly [Music] has Jaden LCA plays the ball out to the right hand side Edward has been everywhere this is him on the ball again he's really really good you see him he's on the ball so much he plays the ball down the right hand side he was aiming it towards Lewis Walker but couldn't quite get there but it's amazing the amount of times I've said edwards's name today yeah now he's back again to him almost misplaced that pass but a little onew between Rowan ins and Luca very nicely done the ball is on the right hand side and it is Coro a left foot shot and I think he got well underneath it well underneath it and it went very high and very wide and it was set up nicely for him good work by woking but they have to find a way of making the this pressure count and uh too often the shots are pretty lukew to say the least and uh not really threatening the goal well it would have been something to score from from what 30 yards out or so is where he was when he took the shot and well maybe it was sitting nicely but the moment he struck it it bounced up and then went very high couldn't control it and it's a goal kick to harle ball and it's been taken here they come on the attack Courtney Senor had the ball now it's Den Lewis for woking though he brings it through plays it across to the right hand side that was a nice little chip pass there by Den Lewis he plays out to the right and onc come woking deep in the harleypool half now boa has it it's turned one way turns the other he's still going he's now just turned back inside the harleypool United Defender who's managed to clear it there is Curtis Edwards once again for woking he keeps possession Rowan in has it turned back towards his own goal plays it to Scott C on the halfway line he looks up to Luca Luca to Casey Casey rolls it back to Max D who looks up again and he plays the ball di diagonally to the right hand side and it's brought down very nicely on the right played back to Edwards once again weling starting to move the ball around it's on the right hand side Edwards is going to put the ball in first time he does but it's nicely controlled by the Harley United Defender and they managed to clear it and nicely dealt with there by Scott KAS but the only thing he could really do was just get his head on it when Desaru was right on him and it's now given as a free kick to harle United just inside the woking half here yeah working again probing those who wondered whether Cur Edwards could handle the physical side was F feels a little bit patronizing really when he's played at a high level in Sweden but it is a very different type of game you have in the National League and he really got stuck in with a tackle there to win possession yeah he's been mentioned quite a few times in this game he certainly gets around and that's the sign of a good player that gets to read the play and that was a misplaced pass Coro puts it down to the right hand side and here comes walk he turns back though and coroa is on the outside of him and it looks like the mo may have gone but ronance gets it back to coroa coroa turns one way turns the other edge of the area the flick cross comes in and unfortunately it's too high no power and lands straight in the hands of the pool's keeper Joel Dixon but that was a good opportunity once again they just took so long to get the ball across it does it's been there been there's been some really eye-catching buildup play but it's that final whether it's a shot where whether it's a whipped in Cross whether it's something that's going to put pressure in that critical area on the defense and it's just not happening enough at the moment just want the the pace that's put around the park to be used in that final third because they are certainly moving around woking there's no question on how much effort they're putting in and how industrious they've been but just when it gets that final moment as Ian was saying they seem to take their foot off the gas a little bit or they misplace the pass or they turn back to their own own goal it just needs a bit of maybe confidence maybe commitment this has been the big questional season really hasn't it from a woken point of view though whether it's confidence it's lacking throughout the squad well certainly you know with the with the losses coming that that has definitely been a factor on you'd think it would be coming back a bit now but it's uh it is that I think Michael D talks about it a lot playing with boldness and uh they need to be really bold in this final uh 40 minutes of the game it's a free kick to Harley paol United Midway in the woking half on the left hand side in comes a free kick and the header Was Won I think by Rowan in and cleared away but here come harle on the right hand side and the cross comes in nicely defended once again that was Scott cbut there that got his foot on it and Har will have it still on the right hand side and the ball is put across and it's way too deep and it goes off for a a goal kick to woking bowled out very quickly by Andre Jr The Keeper it's forced back to cuthber and D was shouting saying put it to the left put it to the left and it has gone left now and it's Edwards who brings it forwards he looks up where can he go well he can only go to Lewis who has to play it back to D squares it to Cur Edge halfway line brought forward now by Luca to coroa coroa to the right hand side to Kelly Evans nicely back to coroa this is the overlap we've been talking the ball is put across cleared away but it's gone for a throwing I think yes the throw to woking on the far side edge of the area that's the sort of obap we're looking for though nicely done little one two and off they went but woking havit and you can hear the fans have responded although it's the heartful fans that have responded at this stage and the ball has been put across once again and it runs out though and it was just a a misplaced pass at the wrong moment you know and it's it's that kind of frustration that seems to seep into the team but positive signs positive signs as uh looks like d l is coming off is he looks like he might have an injury actually he's cing a bit I think he took an ankle knock on Tuesday and uh this looks like it's uh Manny oi coming on who uh who's had huge Fitness issues but is such a good player and uh it looks like Curtis Edwards is going to push forward a bit o ly dropping back so it looks like it'll be oil ly in front of the back four and then in Luca Edwards and K he has looked very very impressive every time I've seen oi play this season when he's come out and we're questioning how long it'll take him to get back up to speed but he's just got that bit of class that working need here he's just very very uh assured as a player yeah here come Harley PA their attack just snuffled out ball is brought forward working on the attack now nicely run no one's closing oh no one was closing down lucer almost ran through the entire side Michael Owen style against Argentina but couldn't quite get it done the WAN have the ball with cuffer who rolls it back I thought he was going to roll it back to the keeper but he doesn't he turns and plays it up to in who then turns and he sends it Kelly Evans but it's gone for a throw into woken on the far side just inside their own half pretty much on the halfway line or will it will be when it's taken anyway and oh and Edwards makes a mistake there doesn't happen very often but uh we'll give him that one we'll give him that one he's he's probably earned one mistake isn't he if that's it that's okay so it's a throw into harle United just inside the working half on the far side working shooting from right to left as we watch on B Lucas and Ian Nicholson bringing you the commentary Harley Port United bringing it Forward once again right in the heart of the Midfield though at this moment rolls it back to the halfway line Tom Crawford back Tom Parks the diagonal ball was put to absolutely no one I'm not even sure who that was intended for because well there was no one around was there and you have to say um Harley pool's shape is gone really they're not really they they're defending they're not as they're coming forward it woking and snuffling it out more and uh really have control of the game as it's being played albeit their one nil down well Manel Alik has taken up a very deep position just in front of the back two as Ian was saying and that's maybe giving a bit of freedom to Curtis Edwards and the working players come together but they do manage to bring the ball out somehow Edwards just couldn't receive that pass and there's a harleypool player down in fact it is their Striker Desu Who's down he gets to his feet but then he he's now in his haunches I think he's going to need a little bit of treatment maybe a bit of a magic sponge I think Bon large the referee's done pretty well tonight he's let play Flow that that didn't really look as though it was a foul it looked like it was just two woking players getting to Des away and well actually he didn't give anything at all it just went out for a throw in it was put out and woken have it and everyone gets back underway the striker didn't have to go off for any treatment so nothing was really given Ian says the ref has had a good game and the cross came in and Edwards got his head on it just didn't get enough of the meat of his head on there and it just flashed wide no but it's you'd have to say it's all working at the moment [Applause] um well Harley Paul trying to threaten but as you say every time they move forward the shape isn't really there they're not getting into positions that they were at and looks like Josh Casey is being called over by the ref at the minute and not sure what the ref wants to say to him but is it about another player is this like rugby style where they bring the captains over and have a little chat to the captains I think it might be cuz yeah feather Stones there the heartley Captain Nikki Featherstone and Josh Casey are having a little chat in front of the referee there's a few other players around them as well just Gathering o Ley [Applause] there there's a couple of players little some crosswords being said but I'm not quite sure what it's about the referee is just trying to deal with it and tells the captains to to get on with it Casey's not interested at all he wants to step away and just get the game underway doesn't he but yeah something between oi and Park by the look of it but anyway it's back underway it will be in just a few moments once all the players have returned to the pitch cuz they took a moment to have a [Applause] drink and here comes that free kick and well there's a bit of an arm wrestle going on and it's Casey on the end of it with Desu the the striker but it goes out for a throwing in and woken her back underway and Curt's bringing it Forward he plays it off to the right hand side towards Kelly Evans to in back to Kelly Evans who puts it back to Cur squares it across to Max D on the left hand side Edward is calling for it but he goes the other way to cber he puts a diagonal ball in forwards and that was nicely done by riie coroa and oh and there was almost a shot off there by Lewis Walker who then went to the ground and I'm not sure if it was a free kick I think he might have just decided to pull the wo over the ref's eyes just there CU it was a bit late I think he may have been touched but not enough to go down there and harleypool had it or had the ball because here come woking once again all the attack seem to be the card's favor at the moment but can they make one pay Edwards has it just to the left hand side he turns back though plays a nice ball forward it's a diagonal ball forward it's bounced once and bounced over the defender headed Let It Go and that was a maybe a questionable decision because Kelly Evans was coming right in behind him and just missed it give the benefit of down and say that was a very good judgment but really Kelly Evans was really coming through there and could have could have snuck in there and just just eluded him yeah well the fans behind the goal are really having a bit of a a shout of the keeper because he's taken ages to get this one back underway but that's what they do nowadays they move the little left and right and then scratch their head head and then think they might put it in a different position and then finally we get it back underway 65th minute of the game it is woking nil harleypool United one here from the lweight Community Stadium bit of ping pong tennis style at the back for woken but they get the ball away and is Lewis Walker who's on it and he plays it to the right to Kelly Evans back to cuer looking to build it again woking from the back o Lei to D just into the heartley P half now back to D he plays it all the way back to curz to draw they're trying to draw harleypool out harleypool aren't really interested in being drawn out at the moment Edwards has it now on the left hand side he's got Casey with him and Casey takes one touch now he held back but the ref lets him go because workin still have it he did acknowledge that it was a pull on Casey's shirt KAS have it right hand s side working still in possession a little onew between in and Luca but harleypool managed to somehow get this ball away and a late stab at the ball from Rowan in it was a late challenge but wasn't anything nasty in it but it's a free kick to harle Midway inside their own half and they take it fairly early and it's the first time really they start to show the intent to get forward the intent they have shown because they're now flying forward with Joe gray on the left hand side he steps inside and it's Desu he takes one touch turns his man and then cleared away oi has it that was nicely defended there because it was a very promising position for the harleypool United Striker coroa has it he takes one touch he's been shadowed though by his man nicely defended by well I say nicely defended by harle ball United but Henry just got a bit too much of cor and it is a free kick to woking have taken it early and Edwards has it and it's going all the way back though to Scott CU on the right hand side of the Center back pairing who plays it forward to Oi and as Ian was saying woking definitely trying to draw Harley Paul United out because at every opportunity it seems to go back to kba or back to D and it looks like U I think was being called back there so Paul U haven't seen feature for a while had a great debut against stalking scored a goal didn't he a really nice goal as well and a nice step over and Rowan H puts the ball across and it's flicked off the defender's head but ahead but here comes Casey he has it it's on his wrong foot edge of the area inside now a couple of touches and a Mis control by oi and it manages to end up going out for a corner kick to woking oy held his head he knew that was an opportunity burst into the area there and a very early corner and Rowan into on the end of it straight into the arms of the keeper that was quick thinking from woking they're starting to Rattle the cage and it does look like there is going to be a change it doesn't like Paul OSU is going to come on he's taken his training top off now in fact he's put it back on again he's realized it's too cold to take off so he's put it back on again for a moment goalkeepers kick there straight out and it's those things that really put the pressure straight back onto Harley pool and uh Cy is woking pressure most of this half the change and it's Courtney senior coming off and on comes Brennan Dickinson bit of a push there as well between Senor and Casey just before that substitution was being made so it look like there's no love loss between those two in this [Music] [Applause] one back underway there a throw in by Harley ball flicked pass to the off to the right hand side but a push from the Harley pool player and it is a free kick to woking they're trying to take it really quickly and it's going to be the keeper who takes it right out by the corner flag and he's played a short ball to dice who looks up to eward who has a little look around before he receives it and plays a nice diagonal ball that's a really nice diagonal ball to the oncoming Kelly Evans that was a really nice ball he plays inside here come working again what are they going to do with it though well it goes backwards once G To Oi up to Edwards who plays it and it's intercepted by the Harley United Defender and back to Scott Kasper once again who plays it forward in CBA diagonal ball towards Coro but it's won by the harle United Defender brought away but woken still trying to get the ball back and then two three players on one in fact and it was on the striker deu it goes down I'm not sure he's going to be injured from that at all but there were three players on him just trying to get the ball off they're all snapping around the heels weren't they I think it was should probably just weight of numbers on him really I think uh in fact he has lost his shoe so and who's that is that Josh Casey down there injured he doesn't tend to stay down is Josh Casey down is he injured is another matter because as you say it takes a something pretty tough to I don't why he would be down you know because the team are chasing it so he must have picked up something there limping a little bit it's his left leg it looks like his shin maybe his left shin or his ankle they wear the tiniest shin pads don't they some of these players it seems to be almost pointless wearing them Josh Casey does his socks are always really halfway up his carves he these little tiny shim pads looks like he's running it off but he might have a sore ankle there Here Comes comes a free kick and the keeper sends it very long I think he going to bounce out yes it does bounces out for a working throw deep in their own half though down to our right hand side he looks like a is going to go warm up again is he is he coming on well they've taken the training shirt off and they're giving him a high viz bib now but he is wearing the red shirt so it looks like they're just getting into the final throws are being ready before he gets put on the field and the ball put forward well Edwards wins that one nicely had get his foot quite High to do so plays a lovely ball back to C but showed good Vision just there in to the right hand side Kelly Evans has it oh and a misplace one two just stretching Jaden Luke couldn't quite get it but oh the keeper delayed that clearance so long that Kelly Evans was almost on him almost been the operative word it'd be a big step forward for woking today if they can get back into this game because so often they've they faded in games but they or they haven't made it count and just you know to come back from one n down to get a point or even to get three points would just be such a pickup and such a learning curve for this side but I have to say even if nothing comes from this game here they've shown a lot more than I've seen in recent times I haven't seen working for a few weeks as you know as the cross comes in straight into the arms of the keeper they've shown enough about them that you would think that okay they can certainly turn this around this season they can certainly find themselves up the league table a bit more yeah they certainly have and and they I mean what I've liked in this second half is the the buildup has been varied there we saw quite a long direct ball in other times it's been dribbling they've been they've been trying different things and keeping on the front foot and uh and really you know Harley haven't had much threat apart from part from one attack I can't really recall any real threat this half no I totally agree it has been pretty much all woking and we haven't said that all season that's for sure cbut puts it out to the right hand side to Kelly Evans takes a touch back to [Applause] in 97 times in KN County Kelly Evans But Here Come harleypool United now and I think they're going to slide the ball through and is Desaru who's moving forward but out comes the keeper and nicely intercepted read that really well Casey manages to turn his man there wrestled to the floor when there was an opportunity to get away and that I think is is professional it's also a bit naughty but Dickinson The Substitute there I think he's going to find himself in the book yes he is yellow card for Brennan Dickinson in the 74th minute for really preventing Josh Casey getting away down the left hand side I think that should be a blue card myself oh don't start and it is a substitute it's Cora going off and on comes OSU JO seriously I mean I'm I have to say I'm not in favor of the blue cards but that would be a situation where a 10- minute simin I think would be justified but yeah naughty 10 minutes year kind of right but I don't want to bring blue Cards into this right now you imagine the V on that oh I know I know it's unworkable in my opinion too many variables in football and you bring a blue card into it oh my word anyway woking havoc on the far side right now and they need something 15 minutes to go in this game training 1 n at home to harle Paul United a goal scored very early on 8 minutes into the game when harle United found themselves one up a really nice flash goal from Joe gray ball came across brilliant touch straight diverted past Alexis Andre Junior who could do absolutely nothing about it woking have had opportunities in this game particularly in the first half a couple of almost point blank shots straight at the goalkeeper on either side would have turned into the back of the net ball put across and it's just gone out for a harle paol goal kick yeah a little bit of cramp coming now for a couple of players and as a player this is a lovely moment when you start seeing those around you on the opposite side are struggling with crap you just think okay let's get at them let's get let's make them sprint let's make them start questioning whether they can actually go that 10 yards well I think woki and pulled them around I mean the the the plus of playing the ball around is you know the opposition players have to work and they making the opposition players work and [Music] uh again it's just that making that that moment of really put the goal under [Applause] threat it's a long clearance from the keeper and it's been brought Away by Dickinson the the booked harle United player Edwards plays it back to CBA it flicks up a little bit and he manages to control it and play it forward to Oi who now plays it out to the left hand side just inside the oh heartly half Edwards couldn't quite get it and I actually thought U was going to get it but he couldn't quite keep it in it is a throw into heartley ball just inside their own half and 10 yards inside harle United looked like a totally different side in the first half to the second half the first half they were quick and they were Snappy and they had a lot of pace down the the wings and well Josh Casey wanted to take that free kick quickly slammed it straight into Crawford's feet there and actually that should be a yellow card cuz you can't be prevented from taking a free kick early if you want and that was his point but the ref just doesn't uh give it much thought and lets him carry on o brings it Forward rolls it to Walker back to CBA Cur looks up there's not a lot around him at the moment but it's flicked on straight over in's head so that's got to be quite a high ball to get there edge of the area played across now to Casey takes one touch on the left hand side puts it forward to Edwards back heel tries to get it back to Casey and can't quite do it just there as U now chases this one down he's going to try and keep it in I think and he does keep it in the left footed U as was had a great debut against Dorking wand scored in that 2 nil Victory 2-1 Victory thank [Music] you Kut brings it forwards oi back to kbur on the right hand side who puts it back Square to Oi looks up Luca has it edge of the area and shouts for a free kick but nothing given there Casey has it and Edwards were closed down very quickly but he's managed to keep on his feet and the ball is put in and it's a lovely ball put in but it's been cleared away edge of the area Edwards takes one touch he tries to go past one man he looks to his left and Casey is there left footed cross comes in oh it's just behind in edge of the area once again Luca takes a shot and it goes through the player's legs and flicks off I think his own man yeah it was OSU flicked off OSU and goes off for a goal kick but that was a really good opportunity a great shot as well by Jaden Luca through the legs and U just getting in the way but row into his now coming off for woking and in his place Charlie Kendall Charlie Kendall kend what sort of dynamic does he bring he's uh he's quick y he's a he's a striker I think uh I think he's well what we've seen of him he he you know he's fast and uh he'll just bring an added threat really Rin I think has done excellent excellently and uh Michael D gave him a warm Round of Applause as he came off yeah I think rightly so cuz I think R has shown shown us the game why he had the reputation that he had when he came here at woking to woking he's very very assured out there today Rin he's put the ball around he's put himself around he's closed things up and Edwards is just looking across to the left hand side looking for some instruction not quite sure what he's been told to do though he looks a bit perplexed at the moment the ball was played back by Cur so yeah Edward's not quite sure what this new formation is with the change but I'm sure he'll understand in a few moments [Music] time so can woking find that spark just last 10 minutes look at the formation it's oi and Edwards playing the in the Center Midfield partnership and then they got three ahead of them so it's really a 42 31 formation that working have reverted to here which is pretty much how harleypool United line up fired at Edwards but he manages to control it from oing puts it to Scott kuffer gets on his heels and off he goes over to the right hand side now and it's Kelly Evans bringing it forwards to Luca back to Kelly Evans nice ball down to the right hand side though the ball is put across the flag goes up Charlie Kendall was a Target and he did get there but he was offside he anticipated that a bit too much really but uh 10 minutes to go here at the lweight community Stadium get a free kick from the offside actually and well the goalkeeper is bringing that forward this is these tactics just to run the clock down aren't they the keeper pretend he doesn't know where he should be taking it from when the the officials clearly they're holding a flag in the right position so yeah every team does it don't it yeah runs a good 10 15 seconds off the clock decent number of traveling fans around 250 here from all the way up in Haro come a very long way they'll be leaving the happiest that's for sure if it stays like this with 9 minutes to go Harley Paul leading 1 n at lweight Community Stadium working of shown what they're about really I think they've given themselves a good account of themselves and I just think they could do with a bit of Fortune in the last moment maybe a bit of uh someone taking a bit of initiative in that final third just to open up this harleypool United defense which do look like you can open them up they've conceded quite a lot this season working knocking the ball around now as Dau has it and there's no one around him and he plays the ball back straight towards the middle mid of the net and that's a def nightmare that is you know but oi has it he brings it Forward Casey looks up to the left hand side was completely open but oi didn't see him Edwards has it he slides it down now to Casey Casey takes one touch plays it in to U who's still got it in fact OSU still has the ball now he's been lent on though and pulled to the floor and I can't believe nothing's been given just there but ref hasn't given anything at all still it's bubbling around and working trying to get the ball back off the humongous deseri the striker Harley PA have it on the left hand side just inside the working half the overlap trying to get the cross in is he well he does try to get the cross in but it rebounds off the woking player and goes out for a corner kick to harleypool United with seven minutes left in this one plus stoppage time it's down the wrong end Ian yeah time ticking away sadly for woking and [Music] uh they built up well they've worked it well today but with with little end product and this is really had if uh Hardley pool's second attack of the half I think pretty much it's going to be a right foot in swinger in it comes cleared away edge of the area it's hardly will still have possession now on the left hand side two or three of their players are back just in case woking make a counter and the cross came in it came off the back of the Harley player and it's a woking throw and quick throw in by D to Casey Casey Square to C but who brings it forward to Oi and over to the left hand side the arm goes up o you wanted it but it was way too high there there for a who couldn't bring it down he'd need to be Rowan in's height if he was going to have any chance of retrieving that ball but U that's not him he's 5'8 something like that sorry paulu yeah yes he is he is very if you say shorter I was going to say if you say he short there'll be listeners here saying how dare you how very dare you on the shorter end are we allowed to say that diminutive is the word that we look for I think that's the word that's the only word can say nowadays in fact the producer in my ear like diminutive is the word diminutive that is correct it's a throw into harle United just inside their own half it's been an entertaining match 85th minute and Henry's going to take it right back and over the head of U and it's offside I think yeah an offside from the flick on and it was Desu that was in the offside position the ref didn't like where it was taken and woken have to retake that or Ley has it he looks up diagonal ball that's a stunning ball about 40 yards 50 yards diagonal there landed right at the feet of Kelly Evans and the ball gets in but it's cleared Away by harle United back to their tall very dangerous Striker but he was brought down he's done it job well but he's been also been well well handled he's been uh you know Max D has been on him as soon as he gets the ball and there was o ly on him but gave away the free kick he's done his job well but he hasn't actually had a decent shot on target I think you know he's not he's not really threatened he's just been a bit of a thorn isn't he which is sometimes all you have to do you do your bit for the team don't you well it's a free kick to harle and it's sent towards Desu but he doesn't get it and it goes out for a woking throw we are 4 minutes of normal time regulation time before we go into stoppage time and it's cper bringing it Forward he looks up Kelly Evans is the recipient of that pass he looks forward and he plays it now down the line towards Walker clattering tackle into Walker and the ball is cleared away it's gone for a throw there's no foul or anything like that but bit of a coming together yeah W for ball at Michael Doyle very engaged very urging his urging his players on stands there for him the game's not over till the whistle blows absolutely give your all throwing comes in and well still trying to bring the ball away the flag goes up and it's a free kick given to Harley paol United and they two players two Harley pool United players almost High five each other there that's job done on the defensive positions and they look up the keeper runs over to the ball and he picks it up you think oh he's going to take it quickly but then he um stops a bit and stamps the ground down you know does a bit of repair work to the pitch chat to the L ask what his birth date is that's right deciding how the family is takes the eight iron out of the bag then puts it back in and takes out the pitching wedge here it comes anyway he sends it very long and very high that was probably a that was probably a sand wedge I reckon anyway H goes flicked on header and Desu I'm sure is in the offside position yet as he goes towards the ball takes a touch and up goes the flag Cur takes it quickly three minutes left woking nil Haro United one Casey makes a run down the left hand side played straight to his feet he receives it a little tapped cross in there a flick on with the chest comes back to [Music] Edwards oh and a real misplaced pass there by Lewis Walker when it's easier to find oi but O Lake was breaking in wasn't he he just under hit it so it was intercepted but uh poing come again Edwards wants it on the left hand side he is screaming for it on the left hand side but he's just Midway on the left hand side that's a beautiful diagonal ball put forward it was a lovely Ball but way too much on it and I think oi was looking up trying to get onto the fit of of Casey but he just wasn't on his toes so he was never going to reach it was either a mistimed pass or a mistimed decision with when to run from Josh Casey cuz he had plenty of space to run into keeper waving his Defenders away and the ref is tending him to get on with it echoing the noises from the fans behind the goal in it comes and dce couldn't win that one the flick on by Walker doesn't quite reach the the targets but Harley will bring it away and Edwards over to the right hand side the ball bounces off the back of the head of the woken player chested down by oi Harley P win it back Edward snapping around trying to get this ball back but can't U looks up and then the ball is put well wide there from the harle defender came from ozu's pressure there yeah really nicely done it's going to be Casey that takes his throw just inside the harleypool half and Edwards puts it across to Oi I think he might have actually been looking for C but it was moving forward but it was intercepted and over to the right hand side that's nicely done and Kelly Evans tries to get the cross in but it bounces rebounds off the Harley pool Defender and goes for a woking corner with 30 seconds of Regulation time on the clock looking over to see where the ball is going to come up but it's not coming up just now 3 minutes or so is what I reckon three or four minutes of time added on it's not been that grumpy the second half there have been a couple of stops haven't there yes there been yeah a couple couple of times there been lengthy lengthy stops with their referee talking to couple of the players dice being one of them all all the 5 minutes ah of time all all the heartly pool players are back in the penalty era virtually left foot in swinger from the corner and it flashes across and no one was there to receive it D is chasing this down can he keep it on yes he can in fact I say d it's not D it was Josh Josh Casey there was no way about D the way he was moving but Edwards puts the ball back in oh and just over the head and the head comes in and the shot comes in it's the one all it's an equalizer in the 90th minute of the game and is leis Walker it came down the shot came it was cleared away it fell to the feet of Walter and my word he absolutely smashed it into the roof of the net from all of three yards out and the fans rushed down towards him what a goal that was for woking they have equalized in the 91st minute of the game wow wow that was the extreme moment well taken and it now reads working one part unit [Music] [Applause] one well you can hear what that means to the fans around here 1 in The 91st minute I think and may have just broken the the the headphones or the speakers in the studio with that one what a moment well taken by Walker listen to the [Applause] fans but it doesn't look like working are done just yet and it doesn't look like working had done Casey has it they're pushing forward there's no signs of this one easing and it's a late challenge but the ball is put across and it's been taken down by Kelly Evans and across it goes and cleared away my this is turned into a lively one Ian you've not spoken for a moment are you okay yeah it was this game drifting to nothing it's now one all and uh really Harley look like they're just digging in deep to keep it that and woking tals are up and they're just coming forward looking for what would be an unbelievable winner absolutely right when the ball is put forward by Edwards and heart just sending the ball as high as they can Edwards takes it down and he needs to stay composed the fans have really come to life haven't they it's been a really really impressive I would say second half actually from woken although they haven't controlled it in any way they they've looked more confident they have in recent weeks they're still coming now and this is how dangerous woking could be on the attack the ball comes across it's deflected away again the last 15 minutes of the first start you'd have to say were woking and this second half if any team they were going have scored it would have been woking although they hadn't had many opportunities no they haven't and that and with a packed defense you were fearing that the the chance just wouldn't come it was just so many players in there as we were saying and then he just fell to Lewis Walker at the far post and he hit it with power it probably a bit of a swing of the leg and it it seemed to hit the underside of the bar and go in I think it hit anything everything and anything it just absolutely welled it into the top of the net as we say though working have deserved an equalizer this is not against the Run of play if you were to say it finishes one all I think both managers would take it and I think they' both be happy with it actually because harleypool were great for the first half hour they took the foot off the gas they stopped finding the inroads down the wings that they found earlier on and Wen came back into it they were pushing they wer weren't really getting anywhere in the final third that final ball was always lacking it wasn't quite going where it needed to but a big moment a special moment there by Lewis Walker and he's brought it back to one all there around maybe 70 seconds to go something like that just over a minute of time added on at the end of this second half and I think woki is still trying to go for it Edwards plays off to the left hand side carry comes forward the fans just screaming him on U takes the touch it was a late Challenge and it's a free kick to woking around 10 yds outside the edge of the area on the left hand side I think it's going to be Edwards that's going to take [Applause] it Doyle shouting to his players he's telling Casey to go in he's trying to they've got something from the training ground haven't they he's trying to instruct them and he's just looked up here at the Box he's just checked us here and uh Quick Glance up to the box it's one all in comes the corner kick it's going to be a right foot in swinger this must surely be the last action of this pulsating game we've seen at the lweight community stadium in it comes right footed oh it's a bit low and it looks like it's going to be cleared Away by Haro they send it very very long there's no one there to retrieve it the ref looks is watch Kelly Evans back to the keeper who sends it long it's spinning and has not won by the working player Harley ball playing it back now to their keeper he sends it long another quick look at the watch there from The Ref woking still trying to close the space down another look at the watch we're into the last last moments 96th minutes of 5 minutes added on at the end of this second half and then comes the cross and it goes to the talismanic striker Desu who gets the header off but it goes over the crossbar and that surely must be it it's got to be it's got to be still letting it go so roing have one more opportunity to get it Forward Casey on the ball towards OSU takes the touch and it goes out now and it's still going there's still time in the 96th minutes still the ball put forward sent away and the whistle sounds 96 Minutes gone here at the lweight community stadium and what a pulsating finish for Haro United players all go down their haches they look absolutely distraught they look out on their feet don't they they were given a really big test here today harle United by a side that needed something they need to keep going working and the signs are good for the rest of the season in they drew back one all in the game they really had to work at yeah that was uh what was different in that game is so often this season at the end of a game it's been woke conceding heads going down here they just kept going kept going boldly and got there what what they deserve which was the equ equalizing goal at the end and uh from then on if there was only going to be one team to win it and that really was woking and it's also Tak and woking out to the bottom four which psychologically going now to a game uh at Halifax is going to be you know key for woking just keeping their noses above that bottom four it may well be they'll drop down into it again before they move up but it's uh it's just been a you know it's been a positive a positive game what what woking needs to cut out is that that that really being overrun in that first 20 25 minutes and going a goal down and then playing catch up it's so hard to play catch up in this league and uh and see the cameras over there going talking to Lewis Walker he's obviously from a working side I'd been here I think I think a lot of the lot of the working players played well big mention to Rowan in who I thought came in lot of pressure on him because chakola has played well Rowan in hasn't been playing well and I thought he had an ex excellent performance for his uh 75 minutes or whatever it was he was on so I think the working team will you know when you score that late it is a bit like a victory in the end it's a point but unbeaten at home and uh and it's important that you woke and continue this match by match Improvement yeah unbeaten at home but it's also two wins one draw one loss in the last four and that's not a relegation side no no no no you said that I didn't it's not the form of a relegation side and as was saying that so they they pulled themselves about the precipice dwking Wanderers though have fallen into the bottom four now and when you look at the s in the bottom four Oxford City eple and Dorking the form is not going their way at the moment kid maybe the one wor because they look like they've got something about them South End filed York they'll be nervous won't they at this stage here but woking have made it to 34 points from 32 games doring wanders are on the same number of points but played a game less yeah yeah so a lot of teams under a lot of pressure but for tonight I think woken did really really well and it'll be interesting to hear from Michael do his views on the game in a moment and uh yeah but uh a good game I mean for the neutral exciting game it's always exciting when you have a goal at the end yeah but uh as Michael dors said after the Oxford game is it an improvement definitely yes I'll be the finished article nowhere near and I think I think you see what he's trying to do um and uh yeah fans will go away I think with happy happy memories of this game because it was a late goal cussing out the sloppiness in the first 20 25 minutes will be very important yeah I think that's that's right in Harley Paul United looks so dangerous in that first half the first half hour or so it looked like there's only going to be one winner in this one they took a very early lead and woking really couldn't find a way through that late equalizer there will do so much for the confidence of the side for woking as they fight against the the relegation threat that is uh performed these players here Michael Doyle well he's starting to turn things around isn't he from a working point of view a very very good result harleypool United well they'll be disappointed have to travel all the way up expecting three points maybe they take one and they will continue on their Journey when they face their next Rivals they're at home to bornwood next time for harle United where is woking travel to Halifax thanks so much for for your company listening to us this evening for mean Lucas and for Ian Nicholson well we hope to have you here another time until then do take care finish one all here at the lweight community Stadium
