Sunday's Ryman North action review

By David Watters

Christmas Sunday`s only game in Ryman North saw Brightlingsea United edge out struggling Heybridge Swifts at North Road, writes Pitchero's Steve Whitney.

Brightlingsea took their decisive lead after 27 minutes from the spot, Jake Turner despatching the penalty.

Swifts had a chance to equalise with a penalty of their own eight minutes from time but the effort was fired wide of the goal.

It got tougher for Swifts a minute later as they were reduced to ten-men when Liam Thomas was dismissed for a second bookable offence.
