JOHN FISHER FC 2-6 COVSUPPORT NORTHERN IRELAND BY KEV MONKS AND ZIAD CHAUDHRY
Covsupport Northern Ireland won their second consecutive game with a 6-2 win against John Fisher at Charlton Athletic.
Kev Monks side needed only six minutes on a cold damp evening at The Valley to take the lead.
Andy Bell, who scored the opening goal of Covsupport's last game at Highfield Road,opened the scoring when he superbly lofted the ball high into the net from the edge of the area.
With Wllie Herron superb at the back, the team of City supporters went further ahead in the 24th minute through an Ally Beck strike.
Beck,voted the Covsupport Man Of The Match, raced through to score this second on Covsupport's third.
Ally Beck
Three became four a minute later when a handball was spotted by the referee. Youngster Jonnie Watson thumped home the first kick but was ordered to take it again. The keeper got a hand to it but could not prevent Watson's penalty from finding the back of the net.
John Fisher who play their football in the London AFA League pulled one back.
But on the stroke of half-time,Ally Beck completed a first half hat-trick cutting inside and beat the keeper on his near post.
At the break,Monks sent on John McAdam who had recovered from keyhole surgery only eight weeks ago.
McAdam slotted in well in a Covsupport side that was working hard,defending when necessary and attacking in numbers.
It was one of those attacks which led to a sixth goal in the 51st minute. A superb corner from Ally Beck fell for Andy Bell whose sweetly hit shot went into the net.
Kev Monks tactic of giving everyone the maximum of time on the pitch meant plenty of substitutions and a loss at times of fluidity.
With fifteen minutes left, Fisher scored for the second time in what was a very sporting contest thanks to young keeper Connor Rippon mistiming an attempted back pass from Brian Adair to gift Martin Hubbard with an easy tap in.

There were no more goals in the now pouring rain and an enjoyable match was followed by a few jars together afterwards.
Covsupport NI Manager Kev Monks said after the game: "I'm highly delighted with the way we have aquitted ourselves today. "The rain suited nobody but we battled well and I was proud of every player.
"The lads coming back from injuries all did very well as did our new boys whilst the rest all put in great performances. The finishing of Dinger and Becko was top quality.
