In Third 'Division League
play on the weekend, Clinton
travelled to London and were
defeated 4-3 by Leo's
Distributing.
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.
