Magic moment !

But not, unfortunately for Wealdstone!

This game had 0 – 0 written all over it for the first hour, although Stones wee unlucky, twice Andre Scarlett saw shots tipped over by the visiting keeper in the first half but Thame’s sole attempt on goal was a Fergus Moore header, defending a corner when he hit the bar.

The second half started in similar vein until in the 62nd minute, a great ball through from Carter released Morgan on the edge of the area, his control took him into the box where, under pressure from the defender he shot low past the goalkeeper into the far corner to give Stones the lead.

It was only to last a minute though as Thame’s magic moment took over. Galvanized into action by the Stones goal, they broke down the left and the ball broke to Perna whose first time shot flew into the far corner of the net for the equaliser.

Thirty seconds later, a similar break saw a similar ball inside to Louis, who muscled Tucker off the ball before he hit a sweet curling shot into the same corner before Carter in the Stones goal had moved.

The game then settled down to an even tussle, both sides creating chances, Swaysland and Morgan going close for Stones before on 79 minutes, a break down the right brought the third goal – a diving header into the far corner of the net from a low cross, but the unfortunate scorer was Wealdstone’s Kevin Ramsay, on as a substitute.

Stones performance was flat compared to recent weeks, and Thame showed little to impress other than their goals as both sides play out the remaining weeks of the season…
