Middlezoy Rovers had an afternoon to forget as they had two sent off in a 3-0 defeat to Newton Abbot Spurs on Saturday (November 9).

Zoy went into this fixture on the back of a morale-boosting 3-2 victory at Torrington AFC last time out.

The home side made two changes from that win with Charlie White and Liam Winter coming into the starting XI.

Middlezoy had made a decent start with Oscar Albano forcing the visiting keeper into saves twice in the first 25 minutes.

But the game turned on 28 minutes when Liam Winter was red carded for a strong tackle.

Then in first half stoppage time Zoy were reduced to nine as George Turner was red carded.

Newton Abbot scored three time in the second half against nine-man Zoy who even had a player sin binned 10 minutes from time.

The result leaves Middlezoy Rovers third from bottom but they have at least three games in hand on teams around them.
