Westfields return to winning ways at high-flying Corsham

After their last Hellenic League match ended in defeat at home to rivals Hereford Pegasus, Danny Moon’s side travelled to Wiltshire to bring home the three points with a non-stop team performance.

Westfields opened up well with Bailey Fuller twice going close before Clark had an effort saved by the Corsham Town keeper.

Fields took the lead on the half-hour mark with a well worked goal when winger Fuller produced a dazzling run and found Clark who took the chance well with a shot just inside the post to give.

After the half-time break Corsham Town came back strongly and Jack Oxenham in the visitors goal made two brilliant saves.

His efforts were rewarded when Fields went 2-0 ahead on the hour when teenager Lewis Rose scored from an acute angle.

Corsham hit back and pulled a goal back through Ralph Oppong who fired through a ruck of players to bring the home side back into the game.

However, Fields restored their two-goal advantage when Zac Powell scored a fine opportunist goal.

The game was not over and in a ding-dong battle Corsham scored two minutes from time through Lewis Gilchrist to set up a tense few minutes.

Westfields made the points safe in the dying minutes when substitute Luke Postle was brought down in the penalty area and striker Clark scored from the resultant penalty to give Westfields an impressive 4-2 away win.

Next Saturday Westfields are on the road again when they visit Fairford Town in a Hellenic League Premier Division game.

Meanwhile, Ledbury Town maintained their place at the Herefordshire Premier Division summit following a 2-1 victory against Bromyard Town.

Joseph Thompson scored the winner 10 minutes from time after Rory Wilkinson scored their other goal. The Bromyard goal came courtesy of substitute Liam Higgins.

Littleton firsts look a likely challenger for honours this season following an 8-1 victory against Ro-Starts Hereford.

Kington Town produced an impressive second half resulting in a 5-0 win against AFC Worcester. Noah Wickham scored a hat-trick for Town, who only led 1-0 at half-time. Further goals came courtesy of substitutes Robby Neilson and Connor Powles.
