1) Tanner dropped from the starting line-up and Garita in were the only changes from Newport. Akinfenwe but no Hayes for Wycombe. Interesting battle looking to take place between Bradley and Akinfenwe. The kick-off was late due to queuing for tickets.
2) Fairly even start with Wycombe going close and then Argyle beginning to dominate. Carey showed why he won't be a Championship player. Soft give away in midfield exposed his centre backs and McCormick stood no chance as the Wycombe forward went 1v1 and beat him easily.
3) Almost immediately Connor Smith hit the bar with a fierce drive whilst the Wycombe 16 clearly dived when pressured by Slew. Slew caused problems down the right and exposed the full-back for pace a couple of times before driving in on goal. The goalie let it roll under his body and the huge cheer from the Demport was enough to persuade the ref to give the goal.
4) Wycombe began to pressurise but Argyle looked dangerous on the break with Jervis and Garita looking to interchange. Garita went close and Jervis forced a shot wide before Garita set up Jervis to score Argyle's second. Carey had a couple of chances and Smith also had a second attempt.
5) Wycombe closed the half on top forcing a couple of corners which we always looked like conceding from. Akinfenwe probably had the better of the first-half duel with Bradley, and Miller and Smith made a couple of wrong decisions when under pressure but the rest of the team had reasonable first 45s.
6) The second half started with both teams trying to put moves together but neither able to string a set of decent passes together. A dangerous free-kick for Wycombe was put over before Argyle scrambled a third through Songo'o. Moments later Akinfenwe seemed to push an Argyle defender out of the way before finishing strongly to pull one back.
7) The game opened up and both sides took the ball end to end. Wycombe won a series of corners whilst Argyle missed a sitter at the other end. Wycombe pressed and it looked like a matter of time before the Argyle defence conceded again. Slew and Bradley immense in defence.
8 ) The inevitable came with the Argyle defence undone yet again by a push on Songo'o and the ball fell nicely for what was a good finish. Adams should/could have used his subs as there was a tiredness about our team and without Carey on the ball we lacked invention.
9) I've seen Luke have better games, his kicking is somehow getting worse. Threlkeld and Garita had good games. Carey was anonymous, policed well by Wycombe. Slew my man of the match but Bradley ran him close.
