BUCKLEY TOWN 1-0 Chirk AAA
29 July 2022
Chirk suffered a narrow defeat in their first ever game in Cymru North.
An Asa Hamilton goal on the hour was enough to give The Bucks all 3 points.
Chirk competed well for the whole game and gave a good account of themselves & will feel a little unlucky not to have come away with a point.
With regular centre backs Matty Williams & Jake Ellison missing, both Ryan Williams and Caleb Davies stepped in and thwarted the majority of Buckley attacks.
Chirks new signing from Berriew, Steffan Rogers, stepped in at right back and contained the threat of Lima Teixera down Buckleys left.
It was a controversial free kick 30 yards out that led to the goal. Jack Orbell was adjudged to have fouled and from the resulting free kick, Hamilton pulled off his marker to glance the ball past Joshua Jones in the Chirk goal.
Chirk pushed to get level and Dale Davies went close only to be thwarted by McHarrie in the Buckley goal.
The game petered out with neither side really threatening the goal and Buckley took the points.
Attendance: 285
Chirk go into matchday2 on Tuesday night with a home game against Mid Wales side Guilsfield with a 6.45 kick off.
