Under-13s Division Three
ANOTHER good team performance by Bassingbourn led to another win as they defeated Fairlands Whites at the weekend.
The home team started well and were awarded a penalty on 13 minutes but Matthew Lovejoy saw his kick well saved by Ryan Bellard.
On 24 minutes Lovejoy was able to make up for his earlier miss when following a corner from Tom Moody he popped up to score the first of the match.
With the back four well marshalled by James Smith, goalkeeper Alan Green was a virtual spectator in the first half while at the other end Jono Roope doubled the lead just before the interval.
