Blues slip to disappointing defeat

The Blues slipped to a third consecutive defeat as their hopes of opening up a gap on their play off rivals were dashed. All the goals came in a five minute second half spell. Seb Dunbar had cancelled out Addai's opener with his first ever Leiston goal on 53 minutes. But his joy was short lived as two minutes later Howard netted to regain the lead for Merstham. The hosts also had outfield defender Cooper in goal following an injury to normal keeper Smith for the last twenty minutes and then saw Fofana sent off late in the game but they still created the clearer chances, Ashlee Jones producing a string of fine saves. The Blues remain third with just five games of the season remaining with Leatherhead at Victory Road on Saturday next up.
