It’s a really cruel game Southbank entertained Henley Reserves at Coley Park Sunday and suffered an extremely undeserved 1-2 loss. Despite taking the lead and controlling the game for 99% of the time, the Bank suffered two sucker punches, the second 3 minutes from to end up snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, despite taking the lead early in the second half. After last weeks Berks and Bucks performance, the Bank looked forward to returning to league action and really will consider this a game where luck was not on their side and the need to score when on top so painfully obvious. After a goalless first half, the Bank opened the scoring after 50 minutes. Gavin Hill scored his fourth goal of the season, finishing after Ackmal’s header had his the bar from a Gale corner. However, despite a number of opportunities including a one on one for Benji and a header from Olly 3 yards out not finding the net, the Bank were made to pay. Out of the blue Henley equalised, a direct freekick from 20 yards out saw them back in the game. Despite the chances above, the Bank really were k/o’d in the 87 min. A defensive header dropped fully 35 yards out from the goal, but was struck instantly by a Henley player and flew in over the helpless Charlie Cook to literally steal all three points. At the full time everybody involved perhaps felt the score harsh and agreed the Bank did enough but the points went to Henley and credit to them.     Team: Cook, Gull, Bradbury, Zeph, Fletcher (Price), Derman, Wagner, Gale, Ackmal, Hill, Williams
