Enfield Borough’s poor away form continued on Saturday with a 4-1 away loss against Buckingham Athletic.

Sam Olawale opened the scoring for the home side before Richard Ennin’s equaliser, but Kevin Owusu’s double comfortably restored the lead and Nick Bines added the fourth to make it safe.

Manager Sean Reece was forced to change almost half of his team due to unavailability, with Henderson Browne, Gideon Sarpong, Tage Kennedy, Jamiah Lawrence-Plentie and Alie Bangura being replaced by Kayne James-Thompson, Treci Bambi, Brian Tshibangu, Micah Jackson and Thomas Opoku.

The home side had the better start and took a deserved lead when Owusu regained possession and launched a hopeful ball into the Enfield box, and Olawale latched onto it to fire past Brandon Walsh.

Olawale had an opportunity to double his and Buckingham’s tally but was made to pay for spurning the chance when Jackson rounded the home side’s goalkeeper before squaring for Ennin to net his 13th of the season from close range.

Buckingham continued to attack after the break and regained their lead in fortuitous fashion when Owusu’s cross from the left was misjudged by Walsh and he could only palm it into his own net.

Owusu, on the opposite wing this time, then effectively finished the game with a powerful run and finish past Walsh.

The best chance Enfield could muster to get back in the game was a shot from James-Thompson that flashed across the face of goal.

Instead of Borough getting back into it, though, Buckingham added a fourth late on as Bines converted to make the points safe and leave Reece’s side 14th in the league.

The team are in action tonight (February, 19) away at Hillingdon Borough in the Middlesex FA Premier Cup before hosting Park View in the league on Saturday, March 2.
