Cheltenham League Div Two
Fintan 1
The Beeches 5
AFTER two disappointing results, The Beeches got back to winning way with a fine 5-1 win away at Fintan.
Beeches started brightly and were 1-0 up after nine minutes when Joe Mansell's shot from the edge of the box beat the diving keeper.
The introduction of Scott Smith after 15 minutes was instantly successful as he beat several desperate challenges to score.
Then after neat work down the right by Robert Mant and Matt Walters a low ball was played across the box and Smith's neat step over left the way clear for Mansell to claim his second.
After half-time Fintan had their best spell and scored after 55 minutes but they then had a player sent off.
Beeches took full advantage adding further goals from Smith (63m) and and Mansell (84m) which completed his hat-trick.

On Saturday, The Beeches entertain Cheltenham League Div One Newton in the Junior Charity Trophy (3pm).
