        ...but his chip is deflected out of danger by an alert Apollo Winter (ACS)!
Min 16: Edgar Davids (TNS) and Anthony Trueman involved in a bit of handbags...
        ...Edgar Davids feels he is not getting enough protection...

        ...a yellow card and a few stern words for Edgar Davids as the game continues.
Min 33: Great tackle by Will Driscoll (ACS)...
        ...to prevent Joshua Daniels (TNS) from latching onto Jordan Marshall's pass.

        ...and gets the return ball from Adam Wilson...
        ...Kamil Conteh rounds Tim Metcalfe and somehow misses the target!
Min 73: Jordan Marshall hits a short back-pass...
        ...and Duhan van der Merwe (ACS) latches on...
        ...but he can't beat an alert Nathan Shepherd.
Min 74: Anthony Trueman (ACS) collects on that right flank...
        ...his cross ricochets to the American striker Nicky Milligan...
        ...whose finish is saved by Nathan Shepherd.
Min 75: Vinnie Patterson almost penetrates Saints's sheilds with a dazzling volley...
        ... a little more power and Sion Bradley would have lost his well placed foot.?

        ...but the presence of Will Driscoll (ACS) means it is easily cleared.
Min 82: Beinn Ghlas (TNS) booked for elbowing Vinnie Patterson.
