Pink Panthers 0-3 Exmouth United

United came up against the top-of-the-table Pink Panthers in the Plate competition today. Exmouth got straight into their passing rhythm and began to press the home side back. They soon took the lead when Finn Glanfield found his way into the box and struck a sweet left-foot strike into the net. United went 2-0 up when captain Dylan Mogford took his chance to shoot from distance and fired past the keeper. Throughout the first-half the visitors kept up the pressure - creating a number of chances.

In the second-half the home side were stronger but the away defensive organisation continued to hold them at bay. Left back Owen Brady was impossible to get past and goalkeeper Lewis Alford made some incredible saves to keep yet another clean sheet. Jack Greaves and Bryn Stephens also played their part with some excellent defensive and attacking work on the right. After being penned back by the home side United broke on the left wing and Jay Leballeur's shot was parried into the path of Glanfield who drilled in the rebound to seal the victory.

Another excellent effort demonstrating how well this group of players can work together as a team!
