A very poor quality game, like you said, the first half was not very good. Both teams with far too much hoofing with no real tactic or bravery to play football on what admittedly is a bobbly pitch. Moore came close twice early on with fierce drives but that was about as exciting as the first half got.
Second half wasn’t hugely improved in quality but Boro definitely had the better of the chances. Moore hitting the post, Donnellan missing a sitter with his head but also have a shot destined for the net, spectacularly saved.
The game had a bit of an end of season feel to it. Neither team has much to play for, albeit Merthyr can still mathematically survive, they look like I team that dont believe they can or will. Boro kept pushing for a second goal, even in the 94th minute when perhaps a shut up shop job was needed. This led to a lapse in the Boro defence with Merthyr firing home what was almost the last kick of the game.
Great to see a huge variety of people in the ground today. Hope they all visit again.
