Oxshott Royals Rebels 2 Claygate Royals Swans 2

Royals left it very late in their final match of the season when they came from 2-0 down with eight minutes remaining to snatch a 2-2 draw.

Two early goals 60 seconds apart had left Oxshott chasing a 2-0 deficit from the 12th minute, but, despite numerous Royals attacks and a handful of shots on goal, the visitors went in at the interval two goals to the good.

Royals continued to attack throughout the second half, but it wasn’t until they switched to a more attacking formation that they pulled one back, El Fadel heading a McLoughlin free kick past the keeper.

Three minutes later El Fadel turned provider, tearing down the left wing before crossing for Nicholls to head in the equaliser.

Oxshott pushed for the winner for the final five minutes but couldn’t get the vital third goal that would have brought them victory.
