Excelsiors and Ponthir called off due to injury

Last night’s game was been abandoned after a Ponthir AFC player suffered a nasty injury within the opening 10 mins.

It’s understood that the player wasn’t involved in a challenge but twisted awkwardly. An ambulance was called immediately but after 60 minutes without sight of the emergency services, it was mutually decided to call the game off.

The Excelsiors were looking in fine form in the early going, with a returning Jordan Harford scoring after a chip over the opposition goalkeeper to put the lads 1-0 in front before the unfortunate injury.

We expect to reschedule the game for next week, with venue and kickoff time to be confirmed.
