A frustrating Afternoon
For once the temperaturue was not too hot.
Ubin lost an early goal in the first half but then proceeded to dominate the game up until the interval. Jamie R scored a great equalizer after a good run down the left and powerful shot. Ubin had various other good goal scoring opportunities during the first half but failied to capitalise on the same.
Ubin started reasonably well in the second half but it was Nippon who went ahead after Amin was beat at his near post. As soon as that goal went in Nippon played deep and were happy to let Ubin retain the ball. In desperation for the equializer Ubin reverted to the long ball to try and make their size advantage count. after various wasted opportunities it was Jamie R who again got Ubin back on level terms with a last gasp strike into injury time.
2 - 2 and Ubin's season is yet to get going - perhaps next week v the impressive Vikings.
