Up to third place march Leatherhead. First and foremost our congratulations must go to the grounds team at Fetcham Grove for getting the match on, as it looked unlikely given the stadium resembled a lake on Saturday afternoon- but the team did their efforts proud, defeating promotion rivals Raynes Park Vale by four goals to one.
It took only one minute for the hosts to take the lead, Tyler Cox with the opener, and although Vale levelled seven minutes before the break- Charlie Penny with the equaliser- the Tanners took only four minutes to restore their lead, Fabio Saraiva making it two-one. Both sides had their chances in the second half, but the clinching goal arrived thirteen minutes from time, Tommy Stagg scoring it, and Leatherhead rounded things off with a fourth three minutes from later to entirely rule out a comeback from the visitors, who slip to fourth.
