A fab five-goal salvo from Adam Stolerman ensured CHIGWELL ATHLETIC ended their FAITHFOLD hoodoo to move two points clear at the top of the MMFL Division One following a thumping 12-0 victory.
The contest was effectively over in the first 10 minutes – as a strong Chigwell team stormed into a 4-0 lead.
Dean Nyman began the rout with a tidy left-footed finish, and then the floodgates opened. Further strikes from Mark Conway (2), Steve Summers (2), Jamie Fox and Alex Levack added the gloss.
Defending champions NORTH LONDON RAIDERS saw their title aspirations dealt a blow as they went down 3-1 to BRADY MACCABI A.
Raiders old boy Ashley Davidson (2) and Scott Warren registered for Brady, with Wayne Davidson replying for Raiders.
SCRABBLE were inspired by two goals direct from corners from man-of-the-match Paul Stein as they ran out 5-1 victors over HMH. James Temple scored HMH’s consolation.
A solitary effort from Marc Morris earned Division Two leaders MACCABI LONDON LIONS their 11th consecutive victory as they edged past ST JOHN’S WOOD TIGERS.
Two goals from Gary Adams earned GLENTHORNE a point as they edged out BRADY B with a 2-1 win. Gary Field replied for Brady with a 20-yard free-kick.
Second-half strikes from Sam Nourazi and Daryl Manning helped MARSHSIDE overcome a first-half deficit to draw against HENDON HARRIERS. Brian Deal and Adam Keizner were the marksmen for Hendon.
