Bank Holiday Bliss for Scholars

Paul Mullins30 Aug 2021 - 16:42

It was 3 points on the road as Chasetown extended their unbeaten start to 2021-22.

Chasetown made the better start but it took until first half stoppage time to break the deadlock. A Jordan Evans cross from the left found Joey Butlin, who shot early through the legs of Sam Lomax.

Bedworth had a gilt edged opportunity to level just after the hour. Andy Parsons was adjudged to have conceded a foul just inside the penalty area, but former Scholar Mitchell Piggon saw his effort saved by Curtis Pond.

The hosts paid dearly for that miss as Jack Langston intercepted a clearance on the Chase right, before getting to the bye line where his cross was fired home by Liam Kirton.

The Greenbacks were back in as Pond was out of his goal and a long distance effort was cleared off the line by Alex Melbourne before Eesa Sawyers drilled home the rebound.

The Scholars took the ball into the corner to wind down the clock before sealing the points in the final minutes. Langston threaded a ball through to substitute Ben Lund who smashed the ball beyond Lomax for a deserved three points.
