Tividale 2-2 Uttoxeter Town

Hard Earned Point

 

Tividale were looking to start this run of three home games in eight days on a positive note against the side who started the game at the foot of the table. But we know from previous experiences, league positions mean nothing on any given day.

The home side started the brighter  but it was Uttoxeter who had the first clear chance but Jack Higgs but had no problem with the save and then Tividale’s Alfie Higgs had a half chance that Uttoxeter keeper Charlie Wood also saved  comfortably.

On 33 minutes a Jack Higgs clearance falls kindly  for Uttoxeter forward Issac Moreledge but Higgs was out quickly to stop the shot. Two minutes later and Tividale were ahead.  A Brad Maslen Jones free kick is swung in to the back post and Ezekiel Agyemang fired home from close range

The home side should have been 2-0 up on 37 minutes when Ben McSkeane found himself free in the Uttoxeter penalty area, but his shot is straight at Wood.

With 2 minutes of the half remaining Tividale centre back Jordan Spragg is sin binned for dissent after questioning the decision to give Uttoxeter a goal kick when he thought it was a corner

Half Time:- Tividale 1-0 Uttoxeter Town

Although Spragg had to sit on the bench for the remainder of his sinbin. The visitors posed no real threat. But within a minute of his return Uttoxeter were awarded a penalty on 52 minutes

It looked like a mistimed tackle from Liam Matthews but Jack Henchcliffe made no mistake, sending Higgs the wrong way.

Uttoxeter have their tails up now and two minutes later they are ahead. John McHugh left un marked in the Tividale area and beats Higgs with his shot

With 5 minutes to go Spragg’s night goes from bad to worse as he sees red for a second yellow with a poor challenge right in front of the dugout’s

Tividale again had the upper hand with a man down and threw everything at Uttoxeter and on 87 minutes Alfie Higgs was left with a back post tap in to share the points

Full Time:- Tividale 2-2 Uttoxeter Town
