Real Riverside A FC Real R 3 vs 0 Smethwick Raiders

<p>Even a Real side missing 3 regulars proved too strong for the overwhelmed visitors. On the back of a great result last week, Real started very positively and attacked with such freedom that the opposition defenders never had a chance to settle.<br style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: left;" /><br style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: left;" />It was no surprise when&nbsp;Richard James&nbsp;crossed for birthday boy&nbsp;Benjamin Wilson&nbsp;to net the opening goal with a looping header.&nbsp;<br style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: left;" /><br style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: left;" />Real then extended their lead when Richard James out-muscled the Raiders centreback to coolly finish after he was found with a precise through ball from&nbsp;Christian.&nbsp;<br /><br />In the second half Real stepped off the gas a bit and were lucky when a Raiders goal was ruled out for offside.&nbsp;<br /><br />However, Real deservedly got their third goal when Christian whipped a cross into the path of substitute&nbsp;John Hodges&nbsp;who made no mistake with a clinical finish.
