WOKINGHAM & EMMBROOK collected three points on the road at London Lions to boost their survival chances.

Having won their seventh match of the league campaign, the Sumas climb up to 17th in the table and four points clear of bottom side Oxhey Jets who have three games in hand.

The Sumas had several chances to go in front in the opening 45 minutes, but were thwarted by the Lions’ defence.

Wokingham’s positive play eventually paid dividends in the 67th minute when Jake Woods was found by Duval and dispatched the ball past the keeper to make it 1-0.

Sumas goalkeeper Sean Woodward came up with some immaculate saves to preserve his team’s advantage before the visitors made sure they would go back with all three points.

Brandon Curtis doubled Wokingham’s lead to give them a more comfortable ending to the game which they saw out for their third away win of the season.
