Dire Swindon was punished late by the National League Champions

By August 19, 2025 Sports

Swindon Town was caught cold during death when they were punished against Barnet for a bad exhibition at home.

Again, Swindon turned out to be exciting for a route and was deeply convinced for another in the first half when no side was particularly close to taking the lead.

An injury in the second half for Harry Smith seemed to be the worst-case scenario, but there was a clear lack of sharpness in the entire field until Emmanuel Osadebe and Dennis Adeniran shot home late.

For the second time in the second division, Swindon fell on her home rapid in this calendar year.

In the end, Ian Holloway had to make a change, with Joel McGregor coming in on his back for James Ball. However, it led to Finley Munroe changing back to the left wing into the backrest and Joe Snowdon. Gavin Kilkenny also applied to the bank.

Swindon obviously planned to see the ball as far as possible at the Barnet defenders nearby after seeing how he made many mistakes in their opening games of the season.

The logic was pretty early when Aaron won Danny Collinge’s ball. He quickly exchanged passes with Princewill Ehibhatiomhan before crossing towards Smith.

It happened again when Smith Cieran Slicker Castle, who immediately panicked and sent a ball to Darren Oldaker. He pretended to beat a defender and then rolled you just over the bar.

Smith was the next one who benefited from a weak defense when he stole the ball on the right side and was accessible on the goal under a lot of pressure. Slicker advanced and managed to save his goal.

Joe Snowdon then won the ball on the side after nine minutes and played a ball across the board. In it was able to get the Ball Slicker wide when he stormed out of his box. When the goalkeeper retired, it was stuck in it and shot on the close. Slicker almost recovered.

Her next raid came from Connor Ripley, who excluded the ball, and Oldakers switched off one line for it. He seemed to find Ehibhatiomhan in the middle, disapproved of it and almost built the slicker when the ball fell onto the roof of the network.

This has been the pattern for 25 minutes and it was a comfortable night for the city. But then Barnet’s shaky legs seemed to stiffen and they found a concerted pressure. A few corners went into the box before Ollie Hawkins hit one of Anthony Harthan’s deliveries at the back post, with Ripley on a very credible rescue to refuse to refuse.

Then Hawkins was able to shoot a header for Callum Stead. Joel McGregor chased him and was able to put pressure on him when he wanted to shoot, and helped Ripley to refuse him when he stormed out.

Swindon had almost collapsed when half dragged on, but they still had a good chance before the break. McGregor discovered a interception, came to the ball and invited beyond three defenders. He wanted to choose Smith in the middle, but played it right behind him, and his deposits did not find his brand.

A few minutes in the second half, a very shabby game almost led to the opener when Ryan Galvin managed to dig up a ball to Ryan Glover, who pulled a rescue from Ripley.

The worst happened in five minutes in half when Smith collided with Slicker for a ball. He was forced, but Swindon did not replace him for five minutes.

After a long stay with ten players, Kilkenny, Paul Glatzel and Danny Butterworth arrived. Glatzel prevailed in the goal almost immediately in the goal, but he blew up directly in the middle.

Billy Bodin finally closed the trio of being called by the bank when Swindon seemed to be able to regain serenity. Sometimes long balls were exchanged for decent passports to work through Barnet.

It would probably be grandiose to describe what one of the two teams did as the game failed when there was ever a fizz.

But then, when the game was one of the worst 0-0-0, a long throw was removed from Glover and there was Osadebe to send the city to a poor defeat at the back post.

This time there were none of the traditional late exhibitions that they sore out because the points with the gentle whimpering disappeared at night, which took the chance to use a half -hearted defense to put them under Ripley.

Again, Swindon gave a look at the intention and then tried to get something for long distances.
