A solid performance away from home saw Stretford Paddock collect all 3 points in a triumph over Ashton Town Reserves. Paddock, who not long ago saw the end of a 6 game win streak, are beginning to rebuild another.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The game was one of little chances, and Paddock had to work hard to break down a robust Ashton defence in the first half.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Paddock’s attacking quality prevailed and in the 29th<\/sup> minute, Joao swept the ball to the back post for Tom Jones to tuck it away; the third time those two have combined for a goal in the last two games.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Paddock went into the halftime break with the lead intact, however the opening minutes of the second half played host to an Ashton goal that levelled up the scoring.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In spite of the setback, Paddock grew into the game, and a couple of minutes after the opposition\u2019s equaliser, Paddock found themselves back in front.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Man-of-the-match Omar Sinclair rose at the back post from a whipped corner to revitalise the Stretford Paddock 11 as they searched for all 3 points.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The second half saw an eagerly awaited return for Ronaldo Brown after his trip to Qatar, and Paddock prevailed in defence to keep their lead intact.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As the Ashton legs grew tired, a counter attack in the 86th<\/sup> minute saw Kieron Molloy tee up the ball for Abdullah Saeed to score Paddock’s third of the game, and ensure that the victory was secured.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A big win on the road keeps Paddock’s promotion hopes well and truly alive as we head into the Christmas period!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n By Billy Powis<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A solid performance away from home saw Stretford Paddock collect all 3 points in a triumph over Ashton Town Reserves.
