League: Over 35s

Lion FC vs Red Star 35s

Red Star Report:

A week after doing battle in the cup, Red Star 35s and Lion met for what-would-be another tight encounter in the league. As before Lion made a lot of the early running and cruised to a 3-1 lead, but Red Star pushed hard in the second half snatching a second setting the game up for a grandstand finish. As Red Star pushed for an equaliser gaps began to appear and there were chances at both ends, but as a last-gasp header sailed wide it was all over and Lion took all the points in another excellent match between these two divisional rivals.

Retainers FC vs Chew Magna Vets

Retainers Report:

A great game played by 2 very good veterans team. Retainers took a very early lead after just 2 minutes. But as the first half continued, Chew came into the game and scored a very good equaliser. In the second half, it was very even with both teams testing the keeper and it looked like both teams would walk away with a point each. But on 70 minutes a wonder strike from Matt Cotton gave all three points to Retainers.

Frampton Ath Vets vs Athletico Lockleaze

Frampton Report:

A fairly even game of football, with the scoreline flattering us somewhat! The opening 25 minutes Frampton dominated possession and they managed to score 3 goals before half time, the highlight being a 30 yard curler from Jason Mills. Mike Beake bagged the other 2 in the first half. The second half saw Lockleaze look to get back in to the game, as they got 1 goal back within the opening 10 minutes of the second half, scoring with a close range header from a corner. Frampton then upped their game and finally put Lockleaze to the sword with Mike Beake completing his hat-trick, an own goal from a corner and a 20 yard strike from debutant Chris Dinham! A harsh result for Lockleaze, but a good game played with good Corinthian spirit!
