It was a gloriously sunny day at Haig Ave this Saturday. It is all about qualifying for the play offs now so a win was important. Southport played more like the Tamworth game than the Droylsden game but had plenty of posession playing 532 again. Kevin Lee was in midfield today and had a good game. Celtic were dangerous from their crosses. Steve Daly took the lead half an hour in and at half time Southport were winning one nil.
At half time Booth and Prince came on and Southport switched to 442. There was a period of confusion, Southport didnt get out of their own half for a while and were under a great deal of pressure.
Eventually Southport sorted themselves out and went on the attack. Their best work came from Robbie Booth on the right wing. Daly hit the cross bar following a Booth cross. But it took a penalty for Southport to double the lead, Steve Daly resolutely carried the ball to the spot and calmly scored.
After the second goal Southport seemed happy to sit back for the rest of the match. Kilheeney obviously wanted a goal to end his barren spell. But it wasnt to be.
