In a repeat of the shoreline from the Reading - Arsenal Capital One Cup match four days earlier, Gos came out on top on a day which won't live long in the memory for the defending on both sides. A very wet pitch meant that the ball had an extra zip and the hosts settled better and moved into an early 2 goal lead. The boys pulled one back, but sloppy defending meant that EMH were quickly able to restore their.2 goal advantage. The boys rallied and by half time had turned the game around and led 4-3.

Two goals early in the second half seemed to have out the game safe, but EMH refused to give up and pulled the score back to 6-5 before Hawks scored a late 7th to finally seal the points.
