The stage is set for another round of Southern League fixtures. This time at the ever-famous Silver Street. Willand welcomed Sporting Inkberrow in the first competitive fixture between the two sides. The Rovers came into this one on a mixed run of form and hoped to lift themselves away from the relegation zone.
The starting XI remains relatively unchanged, with a few additions in recent weeks clawing their way into the starting lineup. The game started off well for the home side, with the whites having a lot of momentum and energy. Inkberrow grew into the game and started having chances too.
Inkberrow took the lead in the 25th minute with a comfortably taken shot. Inkberrow had chance after chance, but at half time it’s still Willand Rovers 0-1 Sporting Club Inkberrow. The second half started the same as the first, with the Rovers looking to get back into the game with some good chances.
The away side would get back into the swing of the game and eventually started to control possession and were pushing for a second. That second wouldn’t come, as the full-time scoreline read Willand Rovers 0-1 Sporting Club Inkberrow. The visitors take all three points, and now the Rovers will be looking for points next week.
Willand are away next week to Bashley; if you can get down there, your support is needed to help motivate the lads and keep our Southern League status. Get behind the lads, and let’s get three points on the road next week in a relegation battle.
