Croydon suffer back-to-back defeats after 2-0 loss at Kennington | InYourArea Community

... In difficult playing conditions Croydon lost 2-0 away to Southern Counties East League Division One leaders Kennington on Saturday. ...

... Kennington had the second shot of the day saved by Lee Allen, and after some decent passing, Andy Somo’s volley went over the crossbar. ...

... Croydon’s goalkeeper Allen had a busy period in a short spell. First, a Kennington shot went wide of the post, then a chance from a corner was punched out, and the ball was caught after the next corner. ...

... Then in the 18th minute, the ball was headed out and found its way to Gary Lockyer who found a gap and his shot went past Allen. After a couple of saves from Allen, Kennington scored again on 37 minutes to double their lead. ...

... Kennington tried to put pressure on Croydon, only for the defence to block their efforts and for Allen to make some smart stops, including a great dive after a Kennington cross. ...
