Again, Northwood started well with Alie Bangura and Tahjae Anderson both having early efforts while a Freddie Ford cross failed to pick out anyone in front of goal. There was fourteen minutes on the clock when Thame registered their first attack, Olly Sinclair saving from Greg Hackett but four
minutes later, the Woods defence was breached when a shot was deflected and it looped up kindly for Dan West to head past Sinclair from close range. It remained competitive through to half-time though the visitors had the best of the chances, Sinclair making a good diving save from a header while the Woods were less threatening in the final third.
Mack Miskin replaced Sakeel Balfour Brown at the break and further substitutions followed soon after as the Woods looked for a way back into the game but the Red Kites still held the upper hand. It was no real surprise when Jack Tutton bagged a second, allowed far too much room to surge forward and fire into the corner on 71 minutes.
Kieron Lake-Bryan had come on as one of the substitutes but was quickly injured and replaced by Tommy Cooney as he looked to inspire a comeback but in fact it only got worse in the closing stages.

Thame substitute Brayden Daniel turned on the edge of the box to score from a low strike on 85 minutes and then Alie Bangura reacted badly to not seeing a foul given after having his shirt pulled, persistent dissent resulting in two yellow cards, leaving his side with ten men. Definitely not a Good Friday.
