Portishead Town Reserves 1 RTFC Reserves 2

Ian Lanning and Joe Robson have taken temporary charge of the side and their tenure started in the best way possible with a 2-1 win at Portishead Town.

Radstock went a goal down in ten minutes but didn’t capitulate and took the game to Portishead. Ten minutes before half-time, the visitors were on level terms when Mason Harrison forced his way into the box and smashed the ball past the home keeper.

Ten minutes into the second half after a period of pressure from the visitors, Nathan Flynn put the young Radstock side in front when he forced his way past two defenders to fire in a fierce shot the keeper couldn’t keep out. The visitors created chances as the game went on, but couldn’t add to their tally and they needed the sure hands of keeper, Lucas Purnell, to ensure the victory was secured.
