SEKAJJA ROCKS UP TO TAME THE TIGERS

- By Rhod Mitchell

NEWLY-PROMOTED Bognor Regis picked up a welcome point against FA Cup heroes Truro in their last match before they travel to Charlton Athletic next weekend.

The high-flying White Tigers have now taken two points from their last three league games and this was another hugely frustratin­g day for the home team at Treyew Road, but a very satisfying one for their West Sussex visitors, who are without league victory since August.

When City skipper Ben Gerring headed them ahead from Noah Keats against the run of play in the 16th minute, the Cornish club looked on course for a routine victory.

But the hard-working Rocks refused to roll over and a fine equaliser from Ibra Sekajja just before the interval was enough for them to earn a precious point, for all of City’s second half pressing.

Sekajja hit a deserved leveler six minutes before the break, cutting in from the left before beating White Tigers keeper Tom McHale at his near post.

In the second half, on a difficult pitch Truro did most of the attacking but did not create too many chances, with Keats denied by Bognor goalkeeper Dan Lincoln.

At the other end, Sekajaa and Ferdinand Takyi went close for the visitors. STAR MAN: Ben Gerring (Truro City) ENTERTAINM­ENT: ★★★★★
