Game finished 1-2 for the Eagles after we through away yet another lead.Originally Posted by hawk
I don't believe we deserved to get beaten today, we must have pissed off the Football Gods as we just can't take a trick at the moment.
Draw would have been a fair result today in my opinion. It wasn't the greatest conditions for Football after the rain this morning the ground didn't quite dry up enough, after the 2 early games the pitch was well and truly gone. Credit to both sides as the game was a real scrap but played in a good manner.
Suburb took the lead in about the 65-70th minute and once again we couldn't hold onto the lead. New Lambton got lucky for their 1st after a defensive deflection on a low hard dead piece found it's way into the net. The 2nd for New Lambton came after a 1 on 1 with the keeper hit the post and went in, questionable decision from the linesman as the goal scorer seemed to be Offside from where I was, that's football I guess I look forward to when we start receiving a few favourable decisions.
Will finish with congratulating New Lambton as they stayed hungry and fought hard to take something from the game as their goals came in the last 10 mins of the game.
Special mention to our Reserve grade as they came from behind twice to equalize after playing with 10 men for the best part of an hour.
