AFC Telford 1 Boston United 2 - Report and pictures
[gallery] AFC Telford United lost their home league game to Boston United in the dying minutes after going down to 10 men and conceding a 90th minute goal to lose 2-1.
Analysis
The Bucks started the game as the better team going forward, and shared more of the play before the opening goal on 15 minutes.
Bradley Reid had a good chance to score in the first minute when McCarthy rolled him the ball into the box, but his low shot was comfortably saved by Dion-Curtis in the sticks for The Pilgrims.
Dwayne Samuels - who had came back into the team for this fixture - then found his way into a great shooting position after cutting into the box from the right flank and fired off a low shot towards the bottom right, but Henry dealt with comfortably.
But for all the Bucks dominance on the field going forward, they were punished after being caught out at the back.
Jason St Juste was threaded a through ball into the Telford penalty area which he controlled before slotting coolly into the penalty area.
The goal looked to take a bit of the sting out of Telford's tail, but they continued to press for an equaliser.
Substitute Josh Wilson equalised for the Bucks after replacing Paul McCone.
He found the corner of the goal from a tight angle at close range, after Ben O'Hanlon delivered a cross from the left wing.
But a Telford come back was thrown out the window, when Bucks defender Ben O'Hanlon brought down goal scorer St Juste as the last man just outside the Telford box.
Going down to 10 men left Telford more exposed, and on 90 minutes Boston substitute Gregg Smith sealed a last ditch winner for the visitors.
He was unmarked in the box and tapped in a Jay Rollins cross from close range.
