With three of County's top players unavailable this was a big challenge against the unbeaten CBC.
The first half was a real scrappy cup tie, but County held-up well, showing strength in midfield and scoring a good goal to level things before the break. HT 1-1
In the 2nd half, County never settled, they lacked cohesion, didn't find their rhythm, and didn't play as a team, but still, they looked dangerous up-front and managed the create some good chances.
The turning point came when CBC went 2-1 ahead and County's commitment and self-belief seemed to dwindle.... they didn't challenge strong enough, stood back from the ball and let the opposition have clear paths to goal. CBC sensing weakness in County's play, took advantage and scored another three goals in the last five minutes of the game.

Coaches comments: Listen to this lads... The worse thing to see in a team with loads of potential and capability is a lack of commitment and self-belief. It should've never been a 5-1 scoreline today. We are much much better than this... Let's show our fighting spirit, learn from this game and start with a positive attitude at training on tuesday night.
Come on the County!!!!
