Match Report - Uppermill vs Flixton FC

Uppermill FC 0 - 0 Flixton FC

We picked up a hard earned point on the road on Bank Holiday Monday after playing out a goalless draw away at Uppermill.

In a competitive encounter, we controlled large spells of possession and looked the more likely side to find a breakthrough. Despite creating a number of promising opportunities, we were unable to convert any of our 13 shots as the hosts held firm.

Defensively, we were well organised throughout and restricted Uppermill to very few clear cut chances, ensuring another clean sheet on our travels.

While we couldn't quite find the winning goal, it was another disciplined away performance and a point that keeps us moving in the right direction.
