Perhaps I was expecting too much after the win at Hemel but frankly we didn't compete until given a lifeline from another fortunate goal, a heavy deflection on Frimpong's shot looping the ball over the sub keeper's head. Not a single shot in the first half and our first attempt didn't arrive until the 53rd minute, off target from Gardner. The game seemed to follow the pattern versus Hornchurch, over-powered in midfield and slow in attack. We conceded just before half time having given the ball away in midfield, then a second early in the second half failing to clear our lines.New boy Frimpong was probably our best player and Vaz showed some energy but otherwise there was little to get excited about. Lots of interruptions to play, niggly fouls and a few yellows for both sides. Fernandez's header did hit the inside of the post from a corner and late on Vaz's header nearly brought an equaliser when he hit the base of the post but we failed to exercise the keeper for most of the game. Those chances make it sound closer than it really was and Chelmsford got a late third as we pushed forward in the 99th minute. No last minute heroics today.Only consolation was that most of the bottom sides also lost apart from Chippenham who made it a second win in two games.
