Wednesfield too hot for Wem Town



     ⚽West Midlands Regional League (Premier Division)

Wednesfield  FC 2  Wem Town 1 Played at The Cottage Ground

Another decent WMRL match, although,if truth be told,a trifle one-sided. The hosts were at it from the off and it was a wonder it took them until the 33rd minute to take the lead through their Number 10 who thoroughly deserved his goal for his efforts. He was a right pain in the neck for the Town defence. Try as they might,the visitors could't really maintain any kind of sustained attack ; this mainly being down to the well-marshalled Wednesfield defence.


The second half was basically just a rerun of the first with the home side persistent in their attacks and the visitors restricted to the occasional foray which more often than not failed to amount to much. The hosts increased their lead on 63 minutes following a goalmouth scramble and we waited for the deluge of goals which,amazingly,never materialized.


The visitors were thrown a lifeline on 84 minutes via a penalty which was duly converted and here they were, in with a chance after being under the cosh for the greater part of the game; unfortunately for them,an equalizer never appeared and Wednesfield bagged three well deserved points.


Wem did their best but they were up against a very good side so credit to them for keeping the score at 2-1.


MOTM  Wednesfield  ; No 10

MOTM Wem Twn  ; No 3(special mention to the keeper who kept the score to two.)


Special mention for Wednesfield FC ; No-one was available to serve hot drinks so we were treated to free coffee/tea and refreshments. Nice touch. 👏👏👏














Wem Town convert their penalty

No it's not a goal,just a fantastic save!
