The Old Five

Some fluent and fluid play by Leamington saw them defeat Dorchester Town 5-0 at the Phillips 66 Community Stadium this afternoon. Unfortunately, results elsewhere mean that they stay in 4th place.

Edwards headed down for Obeng to open the scoring. Powell then made it 2-0 from close range after some good build up play. Obeng scraped the upright and if it hadn't been for a couple of good saves by the Dorchester keeper, Brakes could have been further ahead at half time.

On 57 minutes a long run from Courtney Baker-Richardson into the box saw him put a low shot into the corner of the goal to make it 3-0. Mace headed in from a corner to make it 4-0. Thompson-Brown then made it five with a long low shot.

On a raw afternoon, Brakes fans were sent home with a warm feeling inside them. Attendance 405 plus two dogs.
