There were no early festive cheers on Sunday morning as the Buffalos lost 3-2 away to Lane End United. A makeshift squad and lackadaisical mindset was compounded by three sloppy mistakes all directly leading to opposition goals.
Beaconsfield started fairly well but multiple injuries disrupted the flow and Lane End capitalised to lead 1-0. Conor Stables brought us level but the home side would lead once more. A goal mouth scramble was converted by Fin Palethorpe to make it 2-2 in what seemed like a momentum shifting moment but another defensive error killed any chance of a comeback.
Congratulations to Lane End United on the well deserved victory. Merry Christmas to all and hopefully we’ll be back stronger in the new year!
