| Match Summary | A coachload of fans who had travelled overnight welcome the team, but they are stunned by McMorran’s opener after Oakes hit the bar. Reid saves it, reacting first when Harris’ shot is blocked after Swift misjudges a corner. Late on the post denies him a second and the bar Barlow. |
