Saffron Walden Town 1 Fakenham Town 1

The young Bloods had an opportunity to put this game out of site in the first 20 minutes of the second half, but could not add to their score, and Fakenham came back well to get an equaliser, which in the end they deserved.

Sean Kirk had two good chances to score, with Fakenham also hitting the crossbar, before Theo Hutchinson gave Walden a first-half lead with a well-taken shot.

Hutchinson and Ben Weedon both hit the post with shots and Calum Laird put the ball over the bar from close range.

The Bloods were made to pay for not taking their chances and in the 71st minute Dion Fary equalised with a long range shot from 35 yards.
