Great fight back by Brakes

Leamington staged a great fight back against Redditch United at the Phillips 66 Community Stadium tonight to win 2-1. The home side took a sucker punch in the third minute when the visitors broke from a Brakes corner and Danilo Johnson was given the space to score with a header. Breeden didn't seem too happy with the lino.

The Redditch keeper then made a great save from Jack Edwards and Breeden made a good stop to keep Brakes in the match.

Gudger replaced Tom James at half time because if injury. When Taundry came on in place of Lilly he made a real difference, commanding the midfield and positioning himself well to influence the game. Redditch increasingly resorted to fouls and received a number of yellow cards.

On 64 minutes Rowe equalised from a corner. This revitalised Brakes and Hood then made it 2-1 in a goalmouth scramble.

The Harbury Lane end kept up a chant of 'You can stick your Ferrari up your ****' as Brakes defended their lead with vigour.

Leamington are fourth, two points behind new leaders Slough Town.

Attendance was 408 and one dog.
