Studley 1 Bewdley Town 3

Saturday, 5th Nov 2022

Bewdley had a disastrous start to the game when Studley took the lead in the third minute.  A ball played down theft wing controlled and the Studley winger managed to evade the Bewdley defenders and fire low past Bewdley keeper Joe Stockton. A shocked Bewdley team began to assert themselves and soon be canto dominate the game. With Sam Lester  and Josh Carpenter snapping  up everything  in  the centre  of midfield Studley were reduced to long balls out to their nippy wingers.  

After several close attempts Bewdley got their reward in the 35 minute when top scorer  Dylan Hart lashed home a terrific drive from.30 yards. Bewdley then scored a somewhat bizarre second just 6 minutes later. Hart drove forward again and his shot played pinball in the Studley area eventually looping towards  the goal and Hart, following though, was on hand to nod it home. Dylan Hart then completed  his  nine minute hat-trick from the spot after a tremendous run from Ben Worthington was ended by a crunching and illegal tackle.  Bewdley went in to halftime well worth their 3-1 lead.

Bewdley had chances to increase  their lead, notably with chances from Dylan Hart and Sam Lester, but the goal tally remained  at three. The Bewdley defence, ably marshalled  by Jordan Stoddart & Sam Prescott, kept the Studley attack at bay, and the  rare forays down the wings were  mostly ended by sterling work from Ewan Edwards & Callum Gillies. Joe Stockton dealt with anything that passed  them. Kyonn Evans admirably lead the line up front holding up the ball and causing endless issues for the Studley defence. Connor Jakeman was  tireless and creative throughout the game.

The game ended with Bewdley deservedly winning 3-1, and the team could be proud of their efforts,
