Wrington Redhill Reserves’ push for promotion carried on with a victory over Wedmore.

Wrington Redhill Res 2

Wedmore 1

WRINGTON’S push for a third consecutive promotion received a huge boost as a Tom Johnson brace edged out a strong Wedmore side.

Wedmore thought they had taken the lead from a corner after 20 minutes, but Wrington were grateful to the referee for ruling the effort out for a push on keeper Edmunds.

The home side were sparked into action and drew several good saves from the visiting keeper, before they took the lead through Johnson. Wrington doubled their lead when Johnson scored again after good work by Curtis, Moore, Selman, Oliphant and Buck.

After the break, Wedmore’s long ball tactic looked their most likely route back in the game and so it proved as a mix-up between Edmunds and Selman saw a hopeful ball hit the latter’s back and fall to the feet of the away striker to poke into an unguarded net.

The away side continued to push for a deserved equaliser and they were celebrating what looked like a certain goal until Paul Burnett hooked the ball clear from underneath the crossbar.
