Pennar Robins 2
Merlins Bridge 0
PENNAR Robins scored two goals in the second half to seal victory and effectively killed-off Merlins Bridge’s title hopes.
This was the Wizards second defeat in a row as they stay second, but are 11 points behind runaway leaders Hakin United.
Not many goal-scoring chances were created, but the Robins finally broke their duck in the 50th minute as striker Phil Thompson scored with superb volley.
Five minutes from the end Adam John added the second from six yards to secure their ninth win of the season.
