SWANS END 2025 WITH A WIN

 

WIMBORNE TOWN RESERVES 0 SWANS 4

 

Swans ended the year with a 4-0 away win against Wimborne Town Reserves in The Dorset Premier League.

 

The young Wimborne Reserves team played quick impressive football early in the game and created a few chances to take the lead, however Swans had a great chance to open the scoring but Reavenall-Nuete missed the target when clean through. Greenwood was prominent on the left and Ocean Smith had a fierce shot saved by home keeper Viney. Swans gradually grew into the game and scored two in two minutes when Marcus Smith scored with a deflected shot and John Pritchard struck a superb second with a screamer from fully 35 yards. Swans added the third two minutes from half time when the impressive Curtis Young struck a brilliant volley from the edge of the box to leave Viney helpless. H.T. 0-3.

 

Swans controlled most of the second half and Gundogdu struck the bar with a shot and at the other end Swans keeper Hibbs produced a great save from the influential Wilson. Swans secured the points when Cohen Lee struck a great shot past Viney following a through ball from Brad Smith. Substitute Will Prior was introduced following an eleven week lay off through injury and drew a brilliant save from Viney with a header following a cross from Young.  

 

A superb performance to finish 2025 with 3 points and another clean sheet from Dan Herrington’s men.
