Wakehurst fall to yet another one-goal defeat
Five minutes into the game Knockbreda took an early lead when a free kick from long distance was looped into the box. The keeper couldn’t claim the cross and when it fell John Burns he prodded it home from close range.
Wakehurst responded well and registered several shots on target, the best of which involved Gavin Burnside trying to chip the keeper but it went behind for a corner.
