BLUES BOUNCE BACK IN STYLE
Chester
put the disappointment of the defeat at Curzon
Ashton last week with a commanding 3-0 home victory
over Hereford. Manager Calum McIntyre made changes
to the starting X1 giving a debut to on-loan Burnley
midfielder Will Hugill and there was also a start
for Reece Daly recently recalled from a loan sell
at Witton Albion. They replaced the club captain
George Glendon and Declan Weeks.
It took the Blues just thirty five seconds to
register the opening goal with Charlie Caton rising
to head home a pinpoint Hugill cross from the
right past former
Blue Aaron Chapman in the Bulls goal.
There was a superb passage of play in the build
up to the second goal on 62 minutes that saw Tom
Peers bury a six yard header from Nathan Woodthorpe’s
left wing cross.
Chester wrapped up the
points with a third goal twelve minutes later,
Caton notching his second after being set up by
Harrison Burke.
Victory lifted Chester up to eleventh place in
the league ahead of four successive away matches
beginning at Darlington on Tuesday, kick-off 19.45hrs.
