In the Exeter & District youth league under 11’s division two Central United showed real grit and determination to beat a physical Kentisbeare team 2-1 on Saturday. The first half saw some very nice football despite the boggy pitch and Central United took a deserved lead through a well worked goal by Andrew Lapworth.
