OPENING BLITZ SEES OFF WHITES

2018-10-21 - By Nigel Barlow

FIVE goals in the first 30 minutes finished the game as a contest as a buoyant Droylsden cruised to victory.

Febian Brandy opened the scoring, with a free kick.

Sefton Gonzales headed home from a corner to make it two and almost from kick-off, Brandy got his second.

Liam Caddick made it four on 28 minutes and Domaine Rouse was given time and space in the box to make it five.

A Shaquille AntoineClarke’s own goal and Ben Hodkinson’s efforts gave Widnes a route back in.

But Droylsden made it six into injury time when skipper Michael Brewster danced right through the defence to score and round off a thrilling contest.
