Pre-season football: Haverfordwest County 7-1 Goodwick United

New signing Ben Fawcett grabbed a hat trick as Haverfordwest County continued their Welsh League preparation with a 7-1 win over Goodwick United at The Conygar Bridge Meadow tonight.

The lively Fawcett, who only completed his move from Hakin this month, was clinical as he was joined on the scoresheet by fellow new signing Jack Wilson, Elliot Scotcher, and Dan Williams (2) - all after Llyr Tobin had nodded the Phoenix Boys into an early lead.

In nigh on perfect evening conditions, it was the Pembrokeshire League side who struck 15 minutes in when Luke Raymond's corner was met by centre back Tobin - who made no mistake with his header.

But just after the 30 minute mark the Bluebirds levelled with a goal made in Hakin - as Matthew Broome teed up another former Viking in Wilson, and the youngster duly fired high into Casey Walters' net.

And then Sean Cresser's side really got hold of things in the final five minutes before the break, scoring twice.

Wilson was again involved as he was adjudged to have been bundled over at the back post by a combination of Rowan Nicholson and Scott Delaney - with Elliot Scotcher beating Casey Walters with the subsequent penalty.

And then it was Fawcett who made it 3-1, tapping into an empty net from Wilson’s low ball across goal.

The second half was one way traffic and substitute Tom Dyson won a second Haverfordwest penalty as he was taken out by Goodwick keeper Walters, but the keeper made amends by saving Antonio Facciuto's spot kick with his feet.

But Fawcett was beginning to revel as the Bluebirds pushed forward at pace - and twice he made no mistake with low finishes when clean through to complete his treble.

Dan Williams entered the fray and soon made it 6-1 with a low left foot shot into the bottom corner - and the forward grabbed a second when his precise long range finish beat a stranded Walters and found the net.

It rounded off a worthwhile 90 minutes for The Bluebirds ahead of a tougher pre-season test against Aberystwyth on Saturday, 2.30pm at The Meadow.

Goodwick meanwhile, will now turn their attention to their remaining summer games, including the annual John Bailey Cup at Phoenix Park early next month.
