The Yellows travelled to the home of Marine FC to take on AFC Liverpool for their first home game in their new surrondings. It was the visitors who started brightly with the majority of possesion in the opening exchanges, but it was the home side that took the lead after only 7 minutes, good work down the right by Morgan led to a cross that found Ryan Cox all alone at the far post and he was left with the simplest of chances to send the homeside 1 up.
AFC then began to totally dominate the 1st peroid without really testing Lever in the away goal, Loughlin and Williams were pulling the strings for the home side with Barry linking midfield and attack. Harrison for the Yellows did manage along distance shot but failed to get the strike on target.

It wasn't long before the travelling fans where jumping for joy, as MOM Harrison crossed a pinpoint cross that was met by the on rushing Midgley to level up the scores in the 58th minute.
