​Saltash Utd 3, Wadebridge Town 2

TWO goals from striker Sam Hughes were instrumental in Saltash ending a run of five games without a victory in the Carlsberg South West Peninsula League premier division by beating a hard-working Wadebridge outfit at Kimberley on Tuesday night.

Wadebridge manager Mike Beckett was unhappy with the outcome which he felt was out of his players hands.

Beckett said: "We were unlucky on the night as we deserved something out of this game.

"I thought there were some key moments in the game that were influenced by the referee and resulted in two of the Saltash goals."

Saltash took a 15th minute lead as Hughes dived full length to head home with the visitor's defence appealing for a push in the area.

Wadebridge only had themselves to blame for Saltash's second, nine minutes before the break, when Nathan Cudmore headed the ball past goalkeeper Ellis Glassup to leave Marc Thorne with an empty net in which to score.

Paul Grills superb near post volley pulled a goal back in first half stoppage time and although the Bridger's dominated second half proceedings they found themselves 3-1 down seven minutes from time.

Hughes once again appeared to push his way to a Danny Lewis cross which he headed home from close range and it was not until the third minute of stoppage time that Simon Poole headed the visitors second.

The league match between Launceston and Tavistock was postponed due to a waterlogged Pennygillam pitch.

Newquay beat Camelford 5-3 at Mount Wise on Tuesday in the Durning Lawrence Cornwall Charity Cup quarter-final.
