KEY MOMENTS
MU = Mundford
TT = Thetford Town
1' - MU - A poor pass is intercepted by Francis, he strides into the box and forces a good save from Rodgers, who pushes the ball out for a corner, so close to a goal within the first 30 seconds!
30' - TT - GOAL (0-1) - Thetford pass the ball in and around the box, the move culminating with new signing Money receiving the ball in space and calmly slotting it past the keeper to put Thetford into the lead against the run of play.
55' - MU - Vickers hits a clean strike from the edge of the box, forcing Tom Smith to tip the ball over the bar.
60' - MU - GOAL (1-1) - Another lax ball is intercepted, the No.15 taking the ball into the box and stroking it past Tom Smith, to put Mundford level.
62' - TT - In a familiar sight for Thetford fans, King and Gilchrist link up well, King slotting the ball through for Gilchrist, he is through on goal but the keeper is out fast to make an important block.
66' - TT - GOAL (1-2) - Some fantastic play in the box from Gilchrist sees him evade challenge after challenge, he then picks out Avis unmarked inside the box who picks his spot and calmly fires the ball into the net, an assured finish!
75' - MU - GOAL (2-2) - Mundford are able to find Carlos Rocha 'Rudy' on the edge of the box and in space, he needed no second invitation and hits the ball cleanly to rifle it past the keeper, what a strike!
78' - TT - GOAL (2-3) - Thetford respond quickly, Grove, who signed for Thetford from Mundford, goes on a brilliant run down the left wing, he cuts along the byline and squares the ball in for the waiting Avis who taps in at the far-post.
90' - TT - In the dying moments, Thetford youngster Lott is played through on goal, but the keeper is yet again quick off the mark to close down the space and make a good save.
