Cornelly battle poor conditions

-

he missed out on three other occasions from decent positions.

It was 1-1 at the turnaround, and after Tommy Fry gave Whitchurch the lead, they were awarded a debatable 55th-minute penalty that Josh Spencer converted.

But Cornelly kept on plugging away, and were rewarded 10 minutes later when Callum Jones got a fifth goal of the season.

At 3-2 it was game on again, but significan­tly another hotly disputed goal made it game, set and match Whitchurch.

Once more Cornelly felt a goal from Josh Beddis shouldn’t have stood, as captain Michael Wilson was tugged in the build up.

But in a good oldfashion­ed battle that could have gone either way, Cornelly were unable to improve on a 2-2 home draw with Whitchurch back in September.

However, they had the minor satisfacti­on of the final word with Lakeside Golf star Sammy Jones netting in dynamic fashion.

The next league outing for Cornelly is a home fixture on Saturday week with Ynyshir Albion. against the run of play Broadlands managed to earn them self a penalty as Penyfai’s defensive rock Tom Mahoney uncharacte­ristically brought down club Stalwart Kyle Evans whilst through in goal in the seventieth minute. Up stepped stand in skipper Giovanni Bertorelli to convert despite the keeper getting a hand to it. Broadlands managed to then control the latter part of the game and eventually took all three points. Next up for Broadlands is a trip to league leaders Sarn a week Saturday.
