Wizards work magic to win at Marble Hall

 

Milford United 1 – Merlins Bridge 4

 
Merlins Bridge put on a dominate second half display to gain an impressive victory against Milford United at Marble Hall.
 
Midway through the first period Tomos Gwilliam bundled the ball in the back of Charlie Malloy’s net for the opener, a minute earlier Nick Squire desperately cleared the ball off his goal line as lively Robins’ striker Liam Parks dinked the ball over advancing Wizards’ goalkeeper James Dickson.
 
It stayed level at half time, but after the break the Wizards began to get on top when they were rewarded with a second goal as David Cromwell teed up Nathan Evans who struck a powerful shot from inside the box which flew into the roof of the net.
 
The Wizards added a third in the 68^th minute as goal scorer Gwilliam crossed an inch perfect ball for striker Hayden Dimond header past advancing keeper Malloy and a defender to score from 12 yards out.
 
Ten minutes later Dimond was up ended inside the box for a clear penalty which the striker dusted himself off to make no mistake with the resultant spot kick for his second goal of the game.

Herbrandston 4 – Carew 5

 
Carew came from behind to secure a narrow victory against luckless Herbandston in this nine-goal basement battle thriller.

Hat-trick hero Ferney stuns Robins

 

Tenby 3 – Pennar Robins 2

 
Scott Ferney grabbed an important hat-trick for Tenby who narrowly overcame Pennar Robins at the Clicketts.
 
The hosts took the lead as the lively Ferney chipped goalkeeper Rory Williams, but back came the visitors as they squared matters just five minutes later when Cameron Brunton’s shot cum cross was deflected into the back of Dylan Noot’s net.
 
After half time the Robins took the lead as Brunton’s perfect cross was met by at 12 yard bullet header by Ben Adams.
 
At that stage, the Robins seemed in control but a contentious equaliser was scored by Ferney who the visitors claimed he was in an offside position as he received the ball.
