Tooting and Mitcham United 2 Sheerwater 2 – 31 October 2026 Report

Match Report

It was honours even in this mid-table clash when we came back from two goals down to gain a point, and we almost won it in the last seconds.

In an even first half, the visitors scored after 28 minutes, but Seb Rowland’s strike was ruled out for offside. Just before the break, William Efambe forced a good save from the opposition keeper, Joe Hill.

Sheerwater went ahead on 50 minutes when Kareen Foster cut in and fired past Toby McKimm. We were two down seven minutes later when an unmarked Jake Horn fired home a volley from a corner.

We hit back within two minutes when Man of the Match Sonny Harnett-Balkwill knocked the ball home following a corner. Two minutes later, McKimm made a good save from Elliott York’s shot, and then made another fine save in the scramble from the following corner.

We equalised in the 73rd minute. Despite a late and poor tackle, Alfie Waters still delivered a super cross and, with many expecting a free kick to be awarded, Tim Obisanya scored.

We almost won it in injury time, but keeper Hill’s good saves denied both Efambe and Aaron Smith-Joseph. Overall, it was a fair result, and the match officials commented on how well both teams played football.
