NW London 2-2 Coggeshall Town

Arianit Krasniqi 14' (NW London)
Joe Freathy 53' (Coggeshall Town)
Alex Banyard 57' (Coggeshall Town)
Hugo Javaloyes 85' (NW London)

In a back and forth clash, NW London gained a point through a Hugo Javaloyes free-kick in the 80th minute.

NWL showed no signs of hangover from Saturday's defeat and were quick out of the blocks against play off chasing Coggeshall Town.

There was plenty of intensity from both sides before NWL went forward with Gomes and he laid the ball back to Krasniqi who curled a dipping strike over the Coggeshall Goalkeeper in the 8th minute.

Both teams were not holding back but were generally defending well. Gomes was forced off the play during mid-half and Coggeshall began to carve out a few chances, with Casey saving well from 8 yards out to keep it 1-0.

Coggeshall were edging the play towards the end of the second half without causing the NWL goal too much trouble.

There was a big moment just before half-time as substitute Abbas Osman looked to be pushed from behind in the box but the referee waived play on.

Coggeshall got quickly back into the game right after the break as an over-hit found it's a way into the NWL courtesy of a couple of ricochets.

It seemed to bring the intent back from NWL, as Bernardino Andeme who caused the Coggeshall full backs problems all game long, cut it and fired a dipping shot that hit the bar.

A few minutes later, Town broke down the NWL right and a cross was met with a well timed finish that gave Casey no chance for Town to score.

NWL now had to respond and began to push forward while Coggeshall were not taking a step back either and had a couple of good opportunities and that were excellently saved by Casey.

The equaliser came via Javaloyes free-kick into the far post for his second goal of the season.

NWL didn't stop there as a Krasniqi shot was well blocked and the resulted corner, Nhamechena headed over.

In the end, it's a point shared with both teams having good spells throughout the game.
