MERSTHAM 3 BRIGHTLINGSEA REGENT 3
MERSTHAM let a comfortable three points slip away having dominated the game for 75 minutes.
The Moatsiders almost scored within the first 30 seconds when a Ryan Hall header was clawed away by Brightlingsea keeper Sam Cowler.
But Merstham made their early dominance count, when defender Jake Hutchings nodded home a corner in the sixth minute.
It soon became 2-0 as a superb cross-field ball by Ryan Hall picked out Alex Addai, who buried a low shot into the bottom corner.
Only a brave double save by Cowler denied Merstham a third moments later.
