Away league match
Ater a long period without a game Chipstead proved anything but match rusty with a convincing 3 nil win away to Banstead.
As ever Chipstead's defence proved steadfast which enabled the midfield to push forward to support the forward line.
Taking advantage of a flatfooted Banstead defence, Chipstead scored their first in the 12th minute when Jack lost his marker and latched on to a pass from Ayden to shoot past theit keeper.
Following the restart, Chipstead continued to press with their quick passing creating more chances which frequently required last ditch saves from the Banstead keeper.
Persistence was rewarded with Ayden once again getting on the scoresheet in the 20th min with a well taken goal from a slide rule pass from Sonny.
Banstead recovered from their second setback with a period of sustained pressure and were prevented from reducing the deficit by Nico making a fine leaping save from a free kick.
Despite playing downhill in the second half, the expected further addition to the scoreline failed to materialise in the third quarter of the match.
Pressure from Banstead required frequent interventions by Nico who was required to come out of his box to clear.
An addition to the scoreline looked on when a fine run into the Banstead box by Seb resulted in a foul by the keeper. However, Chipstead failed to convert with Seb hitting the penalty kick onto the crossbar.
A resurgent Chipstead continued to probe the Banstead defence with Arthur and Freddie both being instrumental in creating chances for their striker team mates.
With 5 mins remaining Chipstead finally added to the score when Freddie's pass to Seb was converted.
Overall, a good return to action from Chipstead which has now placed them second in the league table.
