Spalding 2s hosted Cambridge University 3s. Cambridge Uni 3s began the game with most of the possession and chances but Spalding dug in deep with keeping their shape and man marking which limited Uni 3s chances on goal. Uni 3s finally broke the deadlock with a well worked short corner routine to deflect a shot into the roof of the net. Spalding continued to defend well with some smart saves from Rob Callaby to keep it 1-0 at half time. 

 
Spalding started the pushback for the second half which continued with much of the same as the first half with Uni 3s keeping a large amount of possession but Spalding have a small number if counter attack opportunities throughout the half with Lawrence Smith-Hughes and Tim Maltby running in behind the Uni 3s defensive line. Uni 3s did double their lead to make it 2-0 but all 11 Spalding players worked tirelessly to defend and keep it 2-0 at full time.
