It looked as
though Mildenhall may live to regret their
profligacy in front of goal in a barren first
period when James Heathcote sidefooted the home
team in front in the 50th minute after Luke Read
and Ben Seaman combined to unlock the visitors'
defence.
The lead lasted just seven minutes as Partridge,
a summer signing from from Diss Town, raced
clear to be brought down by goalkeeper Tom Ross
and John Sands rammed home the resultant
penalty.
Woodbridge, who lacked height and punch up
front, were caught out again in the 74th minute
when Partridge got goal-side of the defence and
this time rounded Ross before picking his spot.
The result should have been even
more emphatic, but Sands blazed a 95th minute
spot kick high over the bar after Partridge had
again been pulled down by Ross.
The young keeper had excelled
himself twice in the first half to deny first
Partridge when played in by the influential
Foster's defence-splitting pass and then
Foster's close-range diving header.
