TOWN COMEBACK TO WIN DERBY

Runcorn Town recovered from seeing their two goal lead wiped out to emerge 3-2 winners against local rivals Helsby in West Cheshire League One.

Marvin Molyneux's first goal for Town put the visitors ahead early on after a corner from the right was only cleared to the edge of the box.

Simon Burton then put Town 2-0 ahead late in the first half with the move of the game with Molyneux finding Warren Bellew on the left and Burton controlling his cross before finding the bottom left hand corner with a shot.

Helsby got back into the game with Connor Taylor quickest to a ball from the left hand side to knock the ball past Karl Wills and into the corner of the net. And Helsby levelled midway through the half when scored from close range after Wills had saved Jon McDonald's header.

Town's winner came with five minutes remaining from Ste Latham after Burton had been fouled 25-yards from goal. Latham took the free kick and found the top right corner of the goal to give Town all three points.
