Visitors Golcar United had the match sewn up by half time. Ryan John gave them an 8th minute lead when his shot was turned into the net by the defender. Striker Buddy Cox added a brace with two good finishes, each side of a penalty by Alex Hallam. Lepton showed more fight in the second half, with Golcar having chances to extend their lead as it looked like we were going to see two home teams wearing blue and white stripes get gubbed by seven twice in one day.
