<p>Ryhope Railway Inn got revenge on Wear United from the 6-0 drubbing in preseason with a deserved victory<br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" /><br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" />The first half ended 0-0 with the majority of efforts from distance and a few good saves by both keepers<br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" /><br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" />Within 50 seconds of the restart though Ryhope took the lead when a back pass wasn't controlled well by United keeper Andrew Sheekey who then slipped and allowed the striker to put the ball into an empty net<br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" /><br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" />United drew level on 59 minutes when Jonny Bayat played Chris Brown in down the right. He controlled it well, took a touch and then powered it into the net<br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" /><br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" />Ryhope regained the lead on 69 minutes. A cross to the back post was beautifully controlled and then placed into the net.<br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" /><br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" />Ryhope got a 2 goal lead on 77 minutes. Another United mistake gifting them a third goal<br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" /><br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" />Andrew Sheekey made up for his earlier mistake by saving a penalty in the 85 minute to deny Ryhope's player a hattrick and United pulled it back to 3-2 in the 90th minute when a Chris Madden corner was met with a bullet header from substitute Andrew Hodgson going in of the underside of the bar but it was too little too late<br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" /><br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" />United goals - Chris Brown & Andrew Hodgson<br style="color: #62686f; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; background-color: #dddddd;" />United MOM - Michael Earles
