10/28/2019 0 Comments Fareham teen scores maiden EHL goalSixteen year old Philip Larcombe celebrated his maiden National League goal as Fareham tried in vain to wipe out Southgate’s commanding second half South Division 1 lead.
An hour-plus gone and Fareham were trailing 3-0 when Larcombe and Martin Gough clawed the visitors back into the contest – only for Southgate to convert a penalty corner in the dying stages and run out 4-2 winners. A goal down to Tim Smyth’s 25th minute strike, Fareham were on the brink of going under when Charlie Hamilton and Alex Williams stretched Southgate’s lead to 3-0. Fareham head coach Ben Barnes reflected: “We were unlucky to be 3-0 down and had our chances. “We fought hard to get it back to 3-2 but they scored a scrappy fourth goal to put a gloss on it for them.” Although they lost, Barnes was pleased with the way Fareham played. “It was a much better performance (than the 6-0 defeat by Sevenoaks). We were without Rory Penrose and Alex Boxall and had to reshape our midfield, but I was pleased with the way we battled and how we played. “Our forwards worked much harder as a unit this week and it was good having Will Raymond (back from Cardiff & Met) in the squad. “If we show more of the same spirit and fight for each other I fancy results will start going in our favour.”
