In the Devon Football League third-placed Beer Albion 1st’s came away from North Molton Sports Club with a well-earned 1-1 draw last Saturday.
Since the Fishermen’s magnificent win against the Stags in the 2022 Devon Premier Cup there has been a keen but highly-respectful rivalry between these two fine sides and very little between them on the pitch. This game was no exception.
The highlight of the first half was a stunning penalty save by Beer’s man-of-the-keeper Elliot Driver to keep his side on level terms going into the break.
Beer took the lead early in the second half through Centre Forward Josh French but had to settle for a point when North Molton‘s skipper Joshua Stoneman equalised with a header.
Beer 1st’s are on the road again next Saturday with another tough fixture away at Thorverton.
