A goal in each half gave Thurlow a hard earned win in the build up to the coming season. A strong, fast footballing display as the home side, who had only their bare eleven players, fought well and showed they will be a strong outfit in the Cambs Colts league this season. Several new faces made their Thurlow debuts and played a big part in the win against last seasons under 11 cup winners.
A perfectly executed lob over the keeper from Mason Iron as he latched on to Tom Fishers well timed through ball put Thurlow into a 1-0 lead at half time. Soham equalised early in the second half with a superb shot from outside the area. Constant Thurlow pressure brought several excellent save from the Soham keeper until Williamson finally hit the target after he intercepted a Soham clearance and broke free to finish neatly. Thurlow continued to look dangerous and forced a couple more saves from the outstanding Soham keeper, the pick of which was a point blank stop from Tolosi after a tricky solo run beating 3 defenders.
