PAULTON ROVERS 0 v 3 EVESHAM UNITED

Paulton lost to Evesham United as the swirling wind did not prevent both sides creating and missing chances.

Paulton should have taken the lead on the 2nd minutes as Kailan Gould's inswinging free kick from the right looked goal bound and appeared to be cleared by a Rovers player.

Evesham saw a Brad Williams free kick blocked by the home defence then Paulton had three chances as Joe Chandler headed narrowly over followed by Alex Grimshaw cross headed wide by Will Hailston.

On 36 minutes United should have been level as Lorcan Sheehan found Paul Fahy and on to Brad Williams who with only Andrew Hannah in the home goal to beat inexplicaply drove wide.

Former Paulton captain Ash Williams came on at half and he and Sheehan dominated the second period.

Evesham went ahead on 54 minutes as Fahy chipped in from the left and the ball trickled past Hannah into the net.

Fahy then had a goal disallowed as Rovers responded with Elliott Gibbons, Hailston and Gould conbining to bring a save from Kevin Sawyer.

Evesham went 2-0 ahead on 70 minutes when Sheenhan's left winger corner was turned in by left back Nick Stanley.

Rovers pressed with Hailston firing over the bar as the visitors wrapped the game up with 10 minutes left as sub Elliott Kennedy broke down the right to score.
