damage done in first half

against the top of the league ,an inspired second half performance could not pull back the three goals to nil lead the visitors had at half time
. witham did start the game well but both john watson and lewis godbold shot wide in the early stages, but it was thamesmead that took the lead with a free kick on the edge of the area from which DEREK DUNCAN scored with a shot through the out strectched arms of peter haxell the witham keeper making his debut, watson tried a long shot for witham which went just wide , RICHARD BUTLER scored the second when a corner was headed down to him on the half hour, MICHEAL UWEZU scored the third with a long range effort.
witham improved some what after the break but failed to shoot at goal when the target was in sight , but did pull one back when DANNY EMMANUEL went on one of his runs beat numerous defenders and shot in, a shot from ryan charles hit the post, as the visitors were forced to defend ,had witham taken their chances this could have been a better report for witham town
