Under 10 Purple Division TROWBRIDGE Town Youth B are still searching for their first win of the season following a 1-0 defeat to the club's A team on Sunday.

An early goal-mouth scramble nearly gave the B team the lead but they couldn't force the ball over the goal-line.

Both sides piled forward adventurously but they both missed their chances as it was goalless at half-time.

The closest the A team came was a penalty that hit the post, after a handball in the box.

But the A team's persistence paid off when Sam Robins found the back of the net to seal a narrow win.

Josh Howlett was named the A team's man-of-the-match.
