Haverford Pours It On In Second Half


The halftime whistle came at just the right time for United, who were fortunate to be down only 1-nil at the break.

But in the second half, Haverford piled on the pressure, through Willie Fineberg as well as Ryan Kelley, Higgins and Chernitsky.

The blustery conditions were causing lofted shots to either sail over the bar, as happened to Kelley, or made crossing into the penalty box very challenging.

In the 40th minute, however, the Dragons' persistence was rewarded when Brown got the first of his three goals on the day, a close-range right-footed shot which eluded the United keeper despite looking less threatening than other shots the keeper had stopped previously.
