FOOTBALL: Three Bridges knock in four past Mile Oak
Sussex County League Division 1 Mile Oak 1 Three Bridges 4 GOALS by Stuart O'Hara, Lee Carney, Dean Wright and Dean Carden a comfortable away victory.
Lone striker Dean Wright in the first few minutes was the first to adapt to the sloped pitch.
He saw a cross from Lee Carney headed over and a strike that ended up in the same direction.
It took until the 25th minute for a real chance to be carved out when Carney drove through the middle and laid the ball out wide to Stuart O'Hara who unleashed a shot that finished in the back of the net.
Just five minutes later Mile Oak crossed a high ball into the area which saw Bridges keeper Kieron Poynton punch the ball out to Aaron Ransom who calmly smashed the ball into the net for the equaliser.
Two minutes later Wright got him self into the box only to be dragged down for a penalty.
Carney stepped up and coolly put Bridges back in front. At half-time Bridges were forced into a substitution when the pitch had taken its toll on Liam Ahearne, George Hillier joined up front with Wright and James Grant slotted into defence.
With Hillier giving the Mile Oak defence some thing else to think about Carney very cleverly lobbed a ball over the defence to allow Wright to use his pace and chip the keeper for a well earned goal.
This was to be the last bit of action for Carney has he limped off after a poor tackle on him and was substituted for Scott Faber.
Dean Carden got himself on the scoresheet after a mistake from keeper Aaron Stenning that was set up by O'Hara.
With minutes remaining Alex Keaney cleared off the line to allow Bridges to finish the match with a clear lead and a well deserved three points.
