Hard work pays off for Marlow Men's 3rd XI

Marlow 3rd XI travelled to Cressex for the Croxson Cup and came up victorious after a hard 70 minutes of hockey.

Marlow started the game off slowly which played into the hands of Wycombe who took a quick lead after 10 minutes. Marlow then bounced within minutes after Chris Burnett crossed the ball into the path of Robin Walls who finished neatly with a first time defection passed the Wycombe keeper. The game then started to swing into Marlow's favour with some great hockey and plenty of chances created. Ayush Isaac and Ben Rollett were particularly impressive down the right hand side and showed the older member's of the team how to do it. With 10 minutes to go before half time Marlow won a short corner which was converted by Chris Burnett to take Marlow into the lead at half time.

Again the second half started slowly for Marlow with Wycombe on top for the first 10 minutes but some strong defending from Ian Posting and Andrew Parsons kept the boys in the game. With 15 minutes of the second half played, Wycombe caught Marlow on the counter and scored what can be described as a very scrappy goal. You can't take anything away from Joe Daniel's as he kept Marlow in the game for the first 15 minutes of the second half but there was nothing he could have done with that goal. Marlow started to play some more attractive hockey and pressed Wycombe well. With 10 minutes to go the veteran forward line caught Wycombe on the counter and passed the ball well around the Wycombe defence to score and take the lead again. Marlow defended well to kept the lead and came out victorious is what can be described as a great game of hockey.

Well done to all the boys on a great win and furthermore WELL DONE to Marlow Hockey Club on winning the Croxson Cup once again.
