Rampant Reds romp to victory over Radcliffe

FC United cruised to a comfortable 3-0 victory over Radcliffe FC at Broadhurst Park on Bank Holiday Monday with strikes from Jamie Cooke, Matty Rain and an early goal of the season contender from Adam Dodd.

Halifax Town loanee Cooke got the Reds off to the perfect start after two minutes, drilling home his first goal for the club. Rain then turned in Dodd's cross on the stroke of halftime to double the lead. Dodd sealed victory in the 55th minute when he unleashed a 30-yard wonder strike into the bottom right corner for 3-0.

Moments later, it should have been 4-0 but former FC United goalkeeper Cameron Belford saved Charlie Ennis' penalty. The only other disappointment of the day was substitute Jordan Simpson being sent off with 11 minutes to go for denying a goalscoring opportunity. 

It was a great response from the Reds after the disappoitment of Saturday's 2-1 defeat at Hyde United. With two wins, two draws, and two defeats, Neil Reynolds' side have made a steady start to the season and currently sit in 12th position in the Pitching In Northern Premier Division.
