Mond Res 2 Willaston 1

MOND came back from a goal down against high-flying Willaston to inflict their first league defeat of the season.

Mond dominated and Barlow, Dergen, Webster and Gott all went close but the home side couldn't find the finishing touch. Against the run of play the visitors took the lead on half-time.

Mond equalised on 65 minutes when Barlow fed Hammond and his deep cross found Dorgan whose header beat the keeper.

Mond then took control and Andy Gott and Lee Morgan went close before Scott Howard curled a shot past the keeper from 25-yards out.

Mond keeper Martin Gill made some fine saves in the dying minutes to ensure Mond the points. Mom Simon Porter.

Mond Reserves are now sponsored by Domestic Boiler Services.

Stockport Ladies 6 Mond Ladies 1

IN a match of two very different halves the home side took the early initiative with their prolific scorer of last season Jane Fox making no mistake early on. Mond battled back to deservedly get on level terms just before the break when Louise Dixon converted a penalty but the visitors lost all concentration in the second-half allowing Stockport to run in five more goals without reply, four from Fox.
