This game proved to be almost an exact replica even to the score, of the Previous en- counter between these two teams, when, with Clinton leading and outplaying the op- position they suddenly stopped trying and found themselves beaten. Such was the game last weekend. Clinton came out slowly but in control of the game. Within a few minutes Wayne Fulcher took a pass from the left wing and made no mistake in beating Leo's goalkeeper. Clinton kept pressing and the forwards had countless shots on goal which should have scored but for some inex- plicable reason, didn't. Leo's then equalised on a lucky break and the first half ended with the game tied I-1. The second half was a study in frustration for the Clinton spectators who watched each and every forward consistently waste scoring opportunities. Leo's made only infrequent forays into Clinton's half and Derwin Carter in goal was able to handle anything they threw at him. Finally, Brian Jewitt made one shot count and Clinton were ahead 2-1, This was short lived whn Leo's once again equalised, against the run of play. Shortly afterwards a penalty was awarded against Clinton when, with Carter caught out of his goal, Gard Riley handled the ball in making a great "save" on the goal line. The resulting penalty kick was shot high and the Leo's players became incensed at their own player who walked off the and would not field return to finsih the game. The Leo's player s tempers then deteriorated and they started to fight and argue amongst themselves. If Clinton had remained cool and continued to play good soccer they would have won the game. However, they allowed these tactics to distract them and play became very ragged. Leo's then went into the lead on two upset goals again against the run of play, and ' Clinton gave up trying. Finally half-back Don Arm- strong showed the forwards hew it is done when he sent a blistering shot from the 18 yard line into the corner of the net. The game ended there with the score 4-3 for Leo's and Clinton having only themselves to blame, This weekend on Sunday Oct. 28 at 2 p,m, Clinton complete their schedule for this season when they host London Car- nival at the Community Centre. This is your final opport4njty to see Clinton in action "this year so let's give them a big support for their last game.
