College football round up – 2nd week

compiled by Matt Miskimmin

DIVISION ONE 
Magdalen 4-0 Christ Church  
Magdalen recorded a dominant 4-0 victory at home over Christ Church on Saturday. Despite several glorious chances for Magdalen to take the lead in the first half, it was 0-0 at half-time. Magdalen stayed patient, and masterminded by the brilliant Jon Siah in midfield (what an outrage that he's not in the Blues starting XI!) turned their domination into goals from Dan Thompson (2), Merv Kissoon and Alex Obradovic in the second half. Christ Church looked neat in possession at times but rarely threatened the Magdalen goal. Alex Canfor-Dumas

Exeter 1-0 Hertford 
A first half , a thirty yard lob from Luke Barrs was enough to see off a strong Hertford side. Exeter played some good football, particularly in the first half, but were put under pressure for the last thirty minutes and held on well for a good win. David Lee 

 DIVISION TWO 
St John’s 5-0 Merton/Mansfield 
St John's ran out comfortable winners and put in an impressive performance to beat a high-flying Merton/Mansfield side 5-0.  A Matthew Evans-Young hat-trick, a Joel Gregory penalty and a cool finish from James Earle secured the three points, whilst a strong defensive performance shut the opposition down at the other end of the pitch. Mike Newland 

Trinity 5-2 Univ
 
Trinity was outplayed for almost the entire match, but used the wind to good effect with long balls over the top to the excellent Charlie Hill, who bagged another three goals. Horatio Cary
