Review
Much better. We played solidly and got what we deserved tonight, and Lewis Grabban came off the bench after a long injury to score with 4 minutes to go. Yuri Ribeiro's 4'th minute goal was his first for us and we have our first win in 8 games.
Stats:
Due to Coronavirus regulations, the game was played behind closed doors and the official attendance was 0.
