Binfield maintain perfect start with another clean sheet win

Binfield celebrate taking the lead
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Binfield stay top of the Hellenic League Premier Division after they achieved their fourth consecutive victory of the season.

The Moles are still yet to concede a goal in the league this season and are also the only side in the division to have won their opening four matches.

The hosts began as the livelier of the two sides and came close to taking the lead as Gavin had to hook a shot off the line. 

Binfield struggled to keep possession in a frustrating first-half but did come close moments before the referee’s whistle as the Burnham goalkeeper made a vital save to keep out Moore’s effort. 

The visitors broke the deadlock just after the hour mark as McClurg struck from the edge of the box to find the back of the net. 

The league leaders then capitalised on a mistake in the Burnham defence as Joel Balentin pounced and made Binfield’s lead a more comfortable one.
