FA Trophy First Round
BARNET 3 Bath City 2
The Bees looked to have booked their place in round two after a stunning opening 23 minutes which saw them race into a 3-0 lead. Wes Fonguck scored the first within the opening minute collecting Jack Taylor’s pass to thump his seventh goal of the season into the top right hand corner. Number two arrived ten minutes later Taylor’s inch perfect pass picking out Ephron Mason-Clark who’s low cross was turned home by Manny Duku. Dan Sparkes was the architect of number three bursting down the left before picking out Mason-Clark who buried his first goal of the season past the unprotected keeper. Bath pulled a goal back before half time when Michele Effete took advantage of the Bees inability to clear the ball. Adam Mann reduced the deficit to a single goal sweeping home Anthony Straker’s cross after 64 minutes to set up a tense final period which saw both teams miss chances.
