St Neots Men’s 1s narrowly, missed out on picking up a point against top of the table Wisbech Town, losing 3-2 at home.

The league leaders dominated the reverse fixture earlier in the season, but this time Saints held their own and produced a number of chances in front of goal early on.

The visitors took the lead midway through the first half after a good team breakaway.

Despite going behind, Saints continued to play in the same style that had kept them in the game, and were finally rewarded just before the break when Phil McMorris converted a penalty flick.

The visitors took the lead for a third time, and this time held on for the win, despite some late pressure from Saints .
