  Whitehawk U18's  1  Peacehaven & T.  U18's  2 

Having hit 15 goals in their last 3 games, it looked like it could be "more of the same" here at East Brighton Park, as Peacehaven raced to a 2 goal lead in this local derby

After just 4 minutes, a Tom Tyler corner was bundled in by Connor Saunders (left) and

before the home side had time to settle another Tyler corner was met perfectly by Freddie Barker whose header thundered in off the underside of the bar. That goal means he has now scored in all of the last 6 games.

Peacehaven controlled the midfield in the first half, and every time they broke, you felt another goal was on the cards. Kit Chell in the home goal did well to keep out a

barrage of shots on 24 minutes, and we had to wait until the half hour mark before Whitehawk had their first attempt on goal.

The home side tightened up their midfield in the second half and that, together with Peacehaven kicking uphill against a stiffening breeze, made it a more even contest.

Jamie Witham did well to keep out a goal-bound attempt as we neared the end of the game, but with 5 minutes remaining, Whitehawk suddenly found themselves back in the game. A through ball found substitute Callum Macaulay who'd beaten the offside trap, and he kept his nerve to fire past Witham into the bottom corner.

It proved to be too late for Whitehawk though - and Peacehaven's unbeaten start to the season continues.
