JAMES Lemon scored a stunning first-half brace as Droitwich Spa cruised to an impressive 4-1 victory against previously unbeaten league leaders Roman Glass St George.
Lemon netted twice in the space of four minutes to put the home side in command before Reiss Taylor-Randle extended Spa’s lead on the stroke of half time.
The league leaders reduced the deficit early in the second half courtesy of Louis Ward’s header only for substitute Alex Dugmore to complete the scoring for the home side late on.
And the result means Droitwich sit level on points with Roman at the top of the Hellenic League Premier Division table.
Andy Crowther’s side trail Roman on goal difference although the league leaders have a game in-hand on Droitwich.
Spa broke the deadlock on 16 minutes when Charlie Tilley flicked the ball up into the path of Lemon who lashed a volley into the top left corner from 12-yards out.
And Lemon netted another stunner four minutes later as he unleashed a sensational dipping volley from 35-yards out which looped over the Roman goalkeeper and into net.
The home side all but sealed the points in first-half injury time as Taylor-Randle latched onto a ball over the top and chipped oncoming Roman goalkeeper Rob Brown.
Roman reduced the deficit after the break on 51 minutes when Ward headed in unmarked from a corner.
However, Dugmore restored Spa’s three-goal advantage on 73 minutes when he finished on the rebound after Brown kept out Nathan Binner’s initial effort.
Droitwich are next in action against Lydney Town on Saturday, September 27 with kick-off at 3pm at Lydney Recreation Ground.
