EGHAM TOWN   1,  WEMBLEY  0, Tuesday, 21st August, 2012, Combined Counties League - Premier Division
The concession of a scrappy early second-half strike condemmed Wembley to their second consecutive C.C.L. defeat at Egham Town. Only one goal was needed to decide a moderate contest between two well-matched outfits.
The home side put the visitors under early pressure.  The Wembley crossbar was rattled in the fifth minute while the plunging Lee Pearce was forced to make a brave near-post save during Egham's initial assault.
Wembley, meanwhile, looked dangerous on the counter-attack.  Paul Shelton miscued when well placed.  Bryan Marshe had a close range shot smothered by the Egham goalkeeper following a couple of swift breakaways
However, after pinning the Lions in their own half for a lengthy period after the break, Egham eventually netted in the 59th minute. Charlie McCarthy forced the ball home following a goalmouth melee.
This goal proved enough.  Wembley did their best to try and level matters during the time that remained,  but their movements were successfully stifled by a strong Egham rearguard.
Substitute Meshach Williams came closest to levelling matters for the Lions, but after cutting into the box from the right, his low, well-hit drive. nestled into the sidenetting.

WEMBLEY:  Pearce, Merritt, Edun, Marshe (Carroll 52), Korten, Hale, Bates, Finegan, Atkins, Shelton (McComb 78), Mitchell (Williams 69). Subs:  Hailstones-Hopkins, Byron.
