Ardley United came from behind to take all three points with a 2-1 win against resilient Abingdon Town and extend their lead at the top of the Premier Division to six points.

It took just 12 minutes for Abingdon to break the deadlock when Corey Forbes scored with a brilliant free-kick into the top corner that gave Ardley keeper Joe White no cha-nce.

The Abbots were unlucky not to go 2-0 up when Anacalet Odhiambo lobbed the advancing White, only to see the ball nestle on top of the net.

With the first half belonging to Abingdon, it was Ardley who dominated the second.

In the 55th minute, a Stuart Bridges free kick found the head of Adam Garner, who headed across the goal where Ryan Brooks was lurking to level.

Ardley took the lead four minutes later courtesy of a free-kick similar to Abingdon’s in the first half.

This time Bridges found the net direct from his effort to secure Ardley’s 11th consecute league victory.
