A quick turnaround. This may seem a favourable game on paper, but Chesham are off to an unbeaten start, including two impressive wins over Maidenhead and Farnborough. Will be interesting to see how we set up for this one.

From the very limited X coverage, game seems to be following a familiar pattern with Chesham on top, scoring early but Rodari equalising in added time. HT 1-1. Some changes in midfield no doubt due to tired legs after Saturday. A point would be a decent result.

I thought we had a very positive and strong opening until they scored, at which point we lost a little bit of our previous verve. But we came back quite strongly before the end of the half and scored a decent equaliser.

What a result and what drama again! First half i thought we were poor but Rodari equalised at the perfect moment. Second half we were much better and if anyone was going to win the game it would be us. Win it we did in the 94th minute as Paul-Lavaly’s shot crashed down off the bar, the linesman flagged for a goal but Grego-Cox made sure it was in by smashing home the rebound. Amazing fight shown again from this top set of players!

Rodarí looks to have filled the shoes of Vilhete well. Seems to be a goals and assists magnet at the moment.

Well I'm enjoying having my expectations confounded! In truth I thought a draw would have been a fair result, (I'd long settled for it!) but up we pop for a 94th minute winner. Extraordinary stuff, great team performance with some well used substations.

No substations in this team - all full blown power plants delivering maximum output!

Pretty much how I saw it too.
We started off well, but then Chesham scored, their player was completely free from a cross field ball, seemed later than the 10th minute, and then we became very flat, before having a good five minute spell towards the end of the half, culminating in an excellent equaliser.
We had the majority of the play in the second half. and for the second game running scored an injury time winner.
