Atherton Colls 0 Droylsden 1

A STRONG Droylsden side arrived at Alder House on Tuesday night and they took the spoils through a thunderous strike from Matty Burke.

Michael Clegg had a full strength side at his disposal, with the exception of striker Phil Howard who is still recovering from an operation.

However, Jordan Cover who scored twice against Farnworth Town last week went off in the early stages after rolling his ankle.

Despite a two-division gap between the sides Colls matched the visitors throughout.
