Mattishall battle back
Mattishall 3, Sheringham 1
SHERINGHAM started brightly and took the lead after 12 minutes with goal by Mullet after a quick breakaway.
Anema shot wide for Mattishall when well placed after 20 minutes. After a fine move down the middle Applegate was unlucky with his effort on goal. Another break by Mattishall resulted in Applegate firing over the bar.
Anema cleared off his own line after a good cross from the Shannocks, then a quick break by Mattishall again resulted in a near-miss by Applegate.
Bevis fired over the bar for Sheringham when put clean through, but with Mattishall increasing the pressure, Applegte again missed the target.
The second half started with more pressure from Mattishall, and great play by Anema resulted in Ben Lewis scoring the equaliser.
A long ball forward gave Mattishall a second goal through Applegate, who was rewarded for his persistance.
