Greg expressed his dissatisfaction with the lads' performance, noting that we were just kicking the ball around without any passing, shape, or determination to win the ball! 

The second half started off a bit scrappy, but Old Wulfs were trying hard, missing a couple of scoring opportunities.

In the 51st minute, Oscar played a ball over to Olalekan, who was bundled to the ground, resulting in a penalty. Olalekan stepped up and smashed it home, making it 4-2.

Now Old Wulfs were finally playing the football we know they can, creating plenty of chances but failing to score. 

In the 66th minute, Harvey took a corner and delivered a perfect ball to Josh's head, resulting in a lovely goal to make it 5-2.

In the 78th minute, with just 2 minutes left, Old Wulfs switched off, allowing the Forest Falcons to score again, bringing the score to 5-3.
