Leigh Genesis 0 Skelmersdale Utd 1

THIRD-PLACED visitors Skelmersdale United kept up the pressure on the leaders with a narrow victory over 10-man Genesis.

Genesis struggled to retain possession against a well-organised Skelmersdale side and the visitors took the lead on 56 minutes when Ledsham found himself in the clear and slotted past Drench.

Leigh’s hopes of mounting a comeback were extinguished on 78 minutes when skipper Karl Munroe was shown a second yellow card and given his marching orders for the third time this season.

Genesis: Stephen Drench, Lee Woodyatt, Kris King, Mark Ross, Karl Munroe, Chris Page, Chris Dykes (Scott Sephton), Steve Flitcroft, Richard Ratcliffe (Jordan Stepien), Matt Jansen (Tom Ince), Jack Dorney.
