Witton Albion 1 Rushall Olympic 2 - Report
Goals from Andre Landell and Stan Mugisha either side of a Steve Tames penalty were enough to secure Rushall Olympic a much-needed win away at high flying Witton Albion.
AJ Adelekan was on hand on 14 minutes with a superb tackle running back towards his own goal to deny Albion forward Steven Tames a one on one opportunity with Jono Brown.
Danny Waldron came close to giving the visitors the lead on 28 minutes after being played in by Sam Whittall, but a desperate hand from Witton keeper Ryan Neild just prevented the Rushall man from getting a shot into an open goal.
The goal came on 33 minutes, with Andre Landell deftly heading home a Kristian Scott corner to give the Pics a deserved lead.
Witton equalised on 71 minutes through a Steven Tames penalty after AJ Adelekan was judged to have brought down Micah Evans.
Jonathan Brown did superbly well three minutes later to keep the Pics in it with a double save as he first kept out James Foley before scrambling back to his feet to keep out the rebound effort.
Substitute Stan Mugisha regained the lead for Rushall on 82 minutes with a well-placed finish 15 yards out after a perfectly weighted through ball played him in behind the home defence.
The final stages of the game were tense, but Rushall kept the ball well and prevented Witton from creating any chances after retaking the lead.
