I thought it was a thoroughly disciplined performance and we made the best of our limitations.

The defence was superbly organised, helped in no small part by our very competent and experienced goalkeeper North. Oshidi and Brewer were magnificent at snuffing out attacks and getting in vital blocks.

The midfield held it's shape despite Bees moving the ball well and Sambou in particular impressed with his ball winning.

Lucien at least got us moving forward on occasions and James up front was rewarded for his tireless running in an often isolated position, when his smart cut inside resulted in the trip.

This was an excellent performance against very worthy opponents. In the Bees ranks they had an England U21 and a Swedish lad who had played in an FA Cup tie with the 1st XI plus a lot of other young talent. It made for an absorbing contest.
