2nd Nov 2013 Mens 4th - Away vs Horncastle 2nds

Sutton entertained Felixstowe on Saturday in this Prem B fixture and will be kicking themselves they didn't at least get a point.

Sutton started brightly immediately attacking the Felixstowe defence. Sutton created some good chances and should of converted. Felixstowe came back into the game and had some good possession but Sutton defended well as a team. Sutton deservedly opened the scoring with a slick, flowing move tearing Felixstowe wide open allowing Sisson to slot home. Felixstowe came back at Sutton strongly but Sutton weren't ready to concede and Kirkham produced a superb save to keep the Green Army ahead. Sutton created good chances and should have had more to their name. 1-0 HT. The second half Felixstowe upped their game and put Sutton under pressure for 10 minutes but Sutton's defence still held firm. Sutton eventually came into life and created chances that should of put the game to bed. Unfortunately the killing edge wasn't there and Felixstowe's efforts finally paid off as they equalised. The game opened up and could of been won by any team but it was Felixstowe who got the winner and undeservedly took all the points. Sutton should of killed the game off without allowing Felixstowe back in but will take a lot of positives into next Saturday.
