Second half saw MKD playing the ball forward more quickly. Charlie had another excellent game in defence but shame he 'lost his touch' on many of our attacks BUT he was the assist for both goals. Congrats to Mika for his two goals, neither of which were easy. Dale was busy again but the old lack of end product appeared again. Lowery was brilliant until he seemed to tire with about 15 mins to go. Offord definitely looked rusty except for two immaculately timed interceptions. Lancashire did a couple of things well but he made me nervous whenever he had the ball. Pickering was more like himself. Murphy worked hard but Wintle had another iffy game.
So second half wasn't as enjoyable as the first but overall, very satisfying. Two good performances in contrasting styles since the break-- don't lose hope!
