Houghton Chilton Lodge 0 vs 1 Ouston Cherry Tree FC

Ouston made hard work of their latest league victory away at relegation threatened Chilton Lodge.
Ouston started brightly in the opening 10 minutes without creating much, but then seemed to take their foot off the gas for 25 minutes where the game was evenly poised.
Ouston picked back up towards the end of the half, and the Houghton keeper made a couple of good saves. 0-0 HT.
Ouston were again the better side but always wary of being caught on the break. The breakthrough came on around the hour mark, Josh Scott's shot from outside the box was fumbled up in the air by the keeper for Andrew Clarkson to nod home.
There was still time for both sides to be reduced to 10 men. Joe Wilkinson was sent off for a last man challenge, before a Houghton defender was sent off for foul and abusive language after the ref had appeared to award Ouston a spot kick, only for him to give a direct free kick in the box after dismissing the player, a decision that baffled most in attendance.
2 more wins required for Ouston to be assured of winning the Division One title.
