It was a game of two halves for BINFIELD but unfortunat­ely, the second was not much better than the first.

The Moles were shocked when Jake Baxter netted for Chertsey Town in the 17th minute and that remained the score at half time. But just 10 minutes into the second half, Binfield conceded a second when Didi Ndombe struck for Chertsey.

A double substitute saw Elliot Legg replace Ollie Harris and Kian Duncan swap for Dylan Ive but the Moles’ could not find the net.

The result leaves Binfield stuck in eight place.

Combined Counties Premier North

With Egham Town three from the top of the table and the SUMAS three from the bottom, this was always going to be a tough one.

The memory of one of their heaviest defeats of the season in the reverse fixture may still have been on the minds of Wokingham & Emmbrook when they started the game.

The visitors made a promising start when a goal attempt was cleared off the line but a two footed lunge on Ryan Phillips in the 33rd minute saw the Sumas’ Raphael Aklobessi sent off.

Two second half goals from Egham compounded the misery.

THE CITYZENS made the short journey to near neighbours, Holyport FC, in a match which ended in a one all draw.

The result leaves Reading City in ninth place.

Combined Counties Division One

WOODLEY UNITED’S first team travelled to play-off chasing FC Deportivo Galicia and soon learnt why their opponents are tipped for promotion.

The two previous games this season saw Deportivo win 3-2 while in the second United came from two-nil down to secure a much deserved draw.

Two goals in the first half and three in quick succession in the second, stunned Woodley and ended their six run unbeaten record.

A much-needed three points secured a 2-0 victory for EVERSLEY & CALIFORNIA over Hillingdon Borough.

Brad Brown scored from the penalty spot in the 44th minute ending a satisfacto­ry first half. He was replaced early in the second by Ben Anderson then Harinder Hunjan Sing secured a second.

BERKS COUNTY knew it would be a tough trip to London Lions but they took the three points in a sensationa­l win. A goalless first half saw Berks come out fighting and the reward was a second half goal by Lee.

Thames Valley Premier League

FINCHAMPST­EAD netted four goals to secure a much deserved away win over READING YMCA. Goals came from Nathan Rogers,

Aqeel Butt, Charlie Sawyer and Nick Payne. With Finchampst­ead 2-1 up at half time, there was everything to play for but they piled on the pressure in a convincing victory.

Top of the table BURGHFIELD came out victors in an exciting 3-1 win over Maidenhead.

Two goals from Thomas Adams and a third from Rhys Iremonger clinched the three points.

WOODLEY UNITED ROYALS dropped to the bottom of the league after a 7-1 thrashing by Windlesham & Chobham which leaves the club facing many questions. Andrew Juett grabbed four in a very one sided match.

READING CITY U23S: A 3-1 defeat sealed a miserable afternoon

against Wraysbury and leaves the U23s third from bottom.

Southern Region Women’s Premier

Woodley United’s match against Eastleigh in the Community was postponed.

Two points were dropped after CAVERSHAM threw away a two goal lead from the first half against Penn & Tylers Green Ladies.

The game saw four more goals in the second 45 minutes ending in a 3-3 draw.
