St Panteleimon were once again on their travels to face Aylesbury Vale Dynamos.

Both teams started well, a very determined and hard working Aylesbury side made it difficult for the Saints to keep any meaningful possession. On 15 minutes a great through ball from Jonathan Moura saw Dean Morgan in on goal with just the keeper to beat but his shot went narrowly over. Further chances followed but Ayub Albadri and Courtney Massay failed to make them count. The half ended as it started with the neither team able to break the deadlock.

The second half saw St Panteleimon take control of possession and on 60 minutes the deadlock was broken by the impressive Jefferson Clemente with a great volley from inside the Aylesbury penalty area. The Saints then introduced Emmanuel Bowen who made an instant impact on the game firing home an incredible shot into the top corner making it 2-0 to the Saints.

St Panteleimon stay in the Championship mix it what looks likely to be a very tight race to the title. Next for the Saints is a FA Vase 3rd Round tie v Sheringham FC on Saturday 12th November and a late kick off at 19.00. Come on The Saints!!
