Scholars suffer worst defeat of the season

Paul Mullins16 Dec 2023 - 18:31

League leaders Leek came from behind to inflict Chasetown's heaviest defeat of the campaign.

Chasetown took the lead after just 4 minutes when George Cater, on his return to the club, raced onto a through ball and lobbed beyond Dino Visser.

The hosts had actually started well so it was no surprise when Daniel Trickett-Smith fired from long range past Matt Sargeant on 22 minutes.

Five minutes later, Thomas Carr drilled home a low shot from a tight angle and then Robert Stevenson added a third goal in 7 minutes, converting a right footed spot kick.

Cater had two chances either side of half time to reduce the deficit but failed to connect sweetly with both and Visser gathered easily.

Trickett-Smith added his second just shy of the hour with a header from a corner.

Leek had further chances to extend their lead but Sargeant made three good saves and the hosts squandered two good chances.
