A double from Jack Longford saw Didcot comeback to beat Bridgwater 2-1.

Didcot extended an unbeaten run to 9 league matches as they came from behind to beat Bridgwater 2-1.

Didcot were fast starters and almost took the lead early on when top scorer John Mills looked to increase his goal tally only to be denied by the crossbar. Pablo Haysham had a chance shortly after to take the lead however Jack Allward cleared his shot of the line.

Despite a slow start, it was the hosts who took the lead against the run of play. After a mix up in the Didcot defence, Tom Knighton fired past James Foster. Didcot did equalise in first half injury time when Jack Longford fired past Ben John.

Didcot carried the momentum from the goal on the stroke of half time and scored a second in the early moments in the second half when Longford scored his second of the day.

Didcot managed to defend well into the rest of the second half with Bridgwater unable to test Foster. Didcot captain Luke Carnell almost make it three but his header was just wide. The victory extended Didcot's unbeaten run which stretched to 9 games since late August and remain 3rd in the table.
