Bromsgrove Sporting extended their unbeaten run in the Southern League Premier Central to 12 matches with a hard-fought 3-2 victory over Leiston at home.

The result moves Bromsgrove to third place in the table, four points behind leaders Real Bedford, who they can catch with two games in hand. The Rouslers have not lost a league match since August.

Bromsgrove took an early lead when Shaw lashed a shot from 15 yards into the top-right corner after Leiston failed to clear their lines. The home side doubled their advantage on 32 minutes as Freeman nodded in from close range following a cross from Ollie Harrison, who headed Chris Hussey’s corner into the danger zone.

The match took a turn early in the second half when Sporting full-back Brad Bood suffered a serious lower leg injury and was stretchered off. Leiston capitalized on the momentum shortly after, with Adam Mills robbing Hussey of possession to set up Harvey Sayer for a cool finish past goalkeeper Tony Breeden.

However, Bromsgrove restored their two-goal cushion almost immediately when Simeon Maye finished into an empty net after Callum Robinson could only parry Shaw’s initial effort. Leiston reduced the deficit again on 82 minutes through Cameron Rayworth, who glanced in a cross from Sayer to set up a nervy finish.

Bromsgrove held firm in the closing stages to secure the win. The team next faces Leamington on Tuesday, November 10, with kick-off at 7:45 pm at the Our Coop Community Stadium.
