MINEHEAD Reserves gained a 1-0 home win over Bridgwater Sports in Division One of the Taunton Saturday League.

With a team missing Rob Vickers, Andy Gubb, and Oli Reaney they appeared to be a bit sluggish on a sticky pitch.

However the defence of the returning Tomasz Kubaczewski in goal, Lyam Scheepers, Toby Morris, Finn Landon and Myles Campbell-Farmer was very solid and helped keep Sports at distance.

The second half saw the Blues with new energy and with Oli Jones taking over at full back had an additional threat. After 15 minutes of the half an excellent ball from Josh Heath found Jones whose pace took him towards the Sports goal and a good shot found the bottom corner of the net.

Dan Vickers had to give way to injury but with Bart Kubaczewski and Sam Heath stepping up in the middle of the park they kept their lead to the final whistle.

Man of the match:- Finn Landon.
