This was 9th versus 3rd in the league table and was the last game of the season for both clubs. Barrington would finish the season in this position whatever the result, but Misterton could still be caught by South Petherton, six points adrift, but with two games in hand, as well as the better goal difference of the two.
Misterton got off to a great start, going 0-2 up after just eight minutes. They had chances to increase their lead, but their third goal only arrived five minutes before halftime. It looked to be all over, but an early second half goal gave Barrington hope and they created far more chances than they had in the first half. When they made it 2-3 with eleven minutes left, they looked like they might get something out of the game, but Misterton held out to take the three points.
Every so often you come across some really cracking grounds for the level of football you’re at. This was certainly one of them.
