Match Report

All the talk before the match was of the ban handed out to Luis Suarez but the CFJs showed thy can get goals without the Uruguayan and took an early lead, albeit in bizarre circumstances. Gareth Bale's scored some great goals this season but on nine minutes he charged down a clearance and the ball flew past Tim Howard off Bale's outstretched boot. Claymore shrugged off this setback and were level after 28 minutes. Sergio Aguero getting enough room at the near post to turn in a low cross. Clive's team only had parity for three minutes before Ron Vlaar restored Chris' lead. The big defender latched on to a loose ball and let fly from 30 yards and watched his low strike scud into the corner of the goal.

There weren't a lot of chances in the second period. Michu was kept quiet, Danny Graham ran around a lot, Wayne Rooney dropped back into midfield and it all got a bit cagey. With the CFJs unable to finish the game off if it was left to David Luiz to grab an equalising clean and earn Claymore a replay this week.
