An exciting match ended in a draw as reigning league leaders Congresbury FC held Wrington Redhill FC to an impressive 3-3 away fixture.

Wrington Redhill, marking a victory against Ashton & Backwell last week, stepped into the game against Congresbury FC winners with radiant confidence.

Playing disarming football across the field, Wrington Redhill had the match under control but failed to score during the initial game exchanges.

In a classic turn of events, Congresbury seized a lead midway in the first half with the Congresbury striker capitalising on a clearance from the home team.

The underwhelming effort from Wrington Redhill's keeper facilitated the Congresbury goal, leaving the score at 1-0.

Despite this minor setback, Wrington Redhill swiftly rebounded.

A subsequent ball from Jake Marshman found the net, equalling the score line.

Though Congresbury posed a growing threat towards the end of the first half, Wrington Redhill’s defence held firm.

The first half concluded with a score of 1-1.

The second half began with Congresbury reclaiming the lead through a remarkable cross-cum-shot from their right winger, bringing the score to 2-1.

Determinedly, Wrington Redhill pushed forward in their pursuit of an equaliser.

Regrettably, the away team lost two of their attacking players to injury.

Luke Weeks sustained a knee injury that will keep him benched for an extended period, while Harrison Campbell was left with deep stud marks down his shins.

Despite these bruises, Wrington Redhill relentlessly pressed high and played with unflagging energy.

Their labour bore fruit with substitute Chris Jones scoring his maiden season goal, thereby levelling the score at 2-2.

In the closing game stages, a contentious Congresbury striker penalty saw the home team lead by 3-2.

However, the final moments witnessed Wrington Redhill snatch an equaliser.

Substitute Kris Bell scored his first goal for the club, culminating the game at a magnanimous 3-3.

The nail-biting match was declared as an exemplar of a team effort.

Rich with impressive support from both teams' fans, the game saw resounding applause for player of the match, Cam Milkins, thanks to his continuous running, leadership, selflessness, and pair of assists.

The resilient game was a stark reminder of the unpredictable nature of football, where triumph is often birthed amid tough challenges.

Let it also serve as an encouragement for Wrington Redhill players as they accelerate forward, undeterred by tough opposition.
