Three Bridges conclude pre-season with a loss and a draw

On Tuesday last week, a Brannon O’Neill penalty and a close-range finish by Camron Lawson gave Bridges a two-goal lead at home to Eastbourne United.

United pulled the score level by half-time only for Steve Smith to restore Bridges’ lead four minutes into the second half when he reacted quickest after Curtis Gayler’s strike hit the post.

A slip by keeper Kieron Thorp presented United with an equaliser on the hour, before Eastbourne grabbed a last minute winner with a delightful volley.
