Promotion chasing Rylands topple league leaders again!

PROMOTION chasing Warrington Rylands moved up to third in the Northern Premier League West table, with an impressive 2-1 victory over league leaders Workington last night

In a tight contest, the first half was goalless with Ryland’s Kane Drummond coming closest to breaking the deadlock.

In the second half, two quick goals from Owen Robinson (62) and a superb solo effort from Drummond (65) put the Blues 2-0 up.
After the visitors pulled a goal back via Rigg in the 70th minute the final twenty minutes were played mainly in and around the Rylands penalty area as Workington bombarded the Rylands goal in an attempt to maintain their unbeaten record, however it was not to be as Rylands held firm.
Bodies were thrown in the way of goal-bound shots, balls cleared off the line, great saves by the keeper, and a deserved three points in the bag.
