Great first half and despite being the better side, we went in 1-1. Hosts came out stronger but we went 2-1 ahead against play with a brilliant finish. Last 20 minutes came under a lot of pressure after a sending off, but held firm to take 3 points.

Superb display as we complete the league double over visitors Lakenheath. 0-0 at HT and on top but without taking chances. A dominant second half saw us run away with the game and come away with the 3 points. A goal by debutant Fletcher Toll completed the scoring.

A great win under difficult circumstances last night. Can’t praise the players enough for coming back out and putting on a professional 2nd half performance to get the job done. Credit to Watton who are a decent side and put us under some real pressure first half.

Prudence opened the scoring in the first half, after good build up play down the right. A slow start to the second half saw us come under a bit of pressure, before Smalls made it 2-0 from the spot against the run of play and sealed what was overall a deserved victory.
