“FAB PUTS US THROUGH IN A NOT SO FAB GAME!”
The Wombles, backed by 1,400 fans high up in the Gods of The Leazes End, put 11 men behind the baall from ‘the off’, which made it very difficult for a much changed Toon side, from the one that drew 1-1 with Man City on Saturday! (See team startin line up below)
The howlin wind didn’t help eethaa, az new boy Osula led the line for us!
The breakthrough didn’t come til first half stoppage time when NUFC were awarded a penalty at The Leazes End!
Fabian Schar scored from the penalty spot after Miggy Almiron woz hacked doon in the box by Pigott with a ‘pig’ 🐷 of a challenge!(sic!)
At first the ref didn’t give it, but the linesman on The East Stand side waved his flag and after a quick discussion between the two of them, the ref pointed to the spot and ‘Fab’ made me misstayk az he side footed the baall into the net!👇
HT 1-0 up
But in reality this woz a terrible lack lustre performance from us, against The Wombles, who’s fan never stopped singin throughout the match!
Az mentioned above, Wimbledon packed 11 players behind the baall and az far az i can remember they didn’t have one shot on goal throughout the match!?
Dubravka in The Toon goal took a bad knock in the first half and woz replaced by Vlachodimos 👈(hope av sppelt that reet?) at the restart!
Wimbledon’s anly answer in the 2nd period woz to lob lang throws into the box and hope for the best!
The ‘best’ didn’t happen and the game petered oot with the penalty the anly difference between us and the Leegue 2 outfit!
It’s Chelseee at SJP in the next roond at the end of this month, who will be much tougher opponents for sure!
Attendance: 51,739 (1,400 Wombles az mentioned above)
