Leamington go to Stourbridge's Memorial Ground for a 1st qualifying round FA Cup replay on Tuesday night after they drew 2-2 at home with the Glassboys in front of a crowd of 601. It would be difficult to complain about the result.
Stour went ahead on 3 minutes after Hood lost a challenge on the halfway and Liam Daly was beaten for pace by the foraging Knight who easily beat Sawyer to make it 0-1. Craig Owen had to be taken off after seven minutes and replaced by Lee Moore.
The ball was going up in the air too much and we weren't playing our usual passing game, although that may be down in part to the disruptive efforts of the visitors. Sawyer had to make a key save just before the break.
After Brakes had equalised through Lee Moore on 65 minutes who put in a good chip after the keeper punched the ball out, it looked as it might end up 1-1. But then Stour scored a rocket of a shot on 72 minutes to make it 1-2. Brakes did not give up, however, and after a series of corners, it was Daly who equalised with a well taken strike on 86 minutes.
Stour won a free kick in time added on which looked potentially dangerous, but they were not able to make use of the opportunity.
Husband, who looked out of sorts after becoming a father again earlier in the week, was not really comfortable or effective as left back and was eventually replaced by Morley.
