Camelford 2

Tavistock AFC 1

THE Lambs poor run of results continued with defeat at Camelford, who have recently been in good form with a good mid week draw at Parkway.

The first half was competitive with both teams trying to get the upper hand, but it remained even until a free kick taken by Liam Dingle, floated into the penalty area where slack marking allowed Marc Gusterston to score with a superbly executed scissors kick, giving Meeds no chance.

The rest of the half remained a midfield battle with little goal mouth action at either end.

Camelford started the second half much better then the visitors, and it was no surprise when the Camels doubled their lead in the 65th minute. Gusterston got his second of the afternoon when he clinically finished off a headed pass from Josh Insley, from an Adrian Sleep free kick.

Andy Meeds then came to the rescue to keep the Lambs in the game, when he denied Ryan Pooley and Gusterston from increasing the home sides lead, with two fine saves.

The Lambs took advantage of this and reduced the arrears when the excellent Dave Hallett thundered home an unstoppable drive with 16 minutes remaining.

This stirred the Lambs into action as the home defence came under more and more pressure as they searched for the equaliser.

The home defence held firm giving the dangerous Glynn Hobbs little scope with two men marking him.

In the dying minutes a tremendous free kick from Hobbs was brilliantly saved by Josh Colwill in the home goal. It was the home team that were glad to hear the final whistle, as the Lambs put them under immense pressure.

This is another game where the Lambs late efforts deserved to earn them a point, but to be fair to Camelford they just about edged it over the 90 minutes.
