SPREYTON 4 - CHAGFORD 0

SPREYTON continued their winning form at home on Wednesday, April 25 by seeing off Chagford 4-0 - a solid and triumphant victory to do the double over our local rivals!

Liam Ward opened up the scoring by dodging a few players on the edge of the 18-yard box and wrong-footed the goalkeeper with a lovely finish into the bottom right-hand corner. Ten minutes gone and it’s 1-0 to Spreyton.

The ball was then fizzed over to Chris Down to control beautifully and knock past the Chagford ‘keeper - 2-0 and with 20 minutes gone you could almost say the wind was in our favour!

With half-an-hour gone Chagford were pressing a little more when out of nowhere Koehan King planted a ball from the half-way line for the ‘keeper to fumble and go into his own net (will give it to Koehan as the shot/ball forward was on target).

Chris Down completed the night’s scoring within the first half with a lovely finish again taking his tally up to 37 for the season in all competitions - a great achievement Chris, so keep up the good work!

In the second half Spreyton were shooting against the wind and chances weren’t coming as thick and fast as they were in the first half but Chagford didn’t look like they would threaten the Spreyton goal at all.

Overall it was a solid performance for Spreyton.

Unbeaten in the last seven games and still four games in-hand on the top team.

We have also now scored 101 goals this season which for our first season as a club is a fantastic achievement!
