Sawbridgeworth Town 0 Southend Manor 3

Essex Senior League, Saturday 27th April 2013

Manor produced a great second half performance to dispatch Sawbridgeworth Town 3-0 at Crofters this afternoon. The first half was a typical end of season fare with both teams going through the motions and lacking an edge to their play. Manor did create a couple of half chances in the first half but not alot happened and the game reached the half goalless.  Aaron Baldwin had to be replaced at half time with David Tubbs as he hurt his back. Manor came out with much more tempo in the second half and on 52 minutes they took the lead. Sub Tubbs got free down the right and his ball into the box slipped from the keepers grasp and Yew Danso kept his cool to control the ball and slot into the goal for 1-0. Manor continued to pile forward and create chances but only had one goal to show for their efforts. A second goal seemed almost inevitable and so it proved on 63 minutes when after Albert Pinto's great work on the left wing the resulting cross was headed in brilliantly by centre back Brad Vaughan for 2-0.
Three minutes later and it was 3-0. Yew Danso's fantastic through ball found Mark Sisson and his delicately touched the ball past the onrushing keeper and the ball rolled into the net. Manor made two more changes on 74 and 78 minutes. First one was Kye Jude on for Connor Ivie and then the second one was Jonathan Kemp on for Yew Danso, who had a tight hamstring. Manor could of scored more goals but wasted the opportunites but to be fair the game was won by that stage and were totally dominant in the second half.
