Half-time at the JobServe Community Stadium…

Colchester United 1-1 Morecambe

Tough going for Colchester during an opening half where the visitors have created the greater number of chances.

Indeed, Morecambe were swiftly ahead when John O’Sullivan’s volley decieved U’s stopper Dean Gerken.

Colchester levelled midway through the half when Cole Stockton deflected Cohen Bramall’s free-kick into his own goal. But Morecambe continued to press – Carlos Mendes Gomes hitting the post shortly before the interval.
