Mangotsfield United gave themselves a glimmer of hope they may avoid relegation by taking three points from this local derby at the Hand Stadium.

They built up a three goal lead before Clevedon hit back with a late rally to score twice in the closing minutes.

Mangotsfield took a sixth-minute lead when an Ellis Wilmot free kick was converted by Daine O'Connor.

On the stroke of half time O'Connor struck to make it 2-0 in a goal mouth scramble.

Seven minutes into the second half Matt Groves made it 3-0.

Clevedon kept up the pressure, which paid off with an 89th minute goal from Jamel Easter and a minute later Lee Molyneaux added a second, but Mangotsfield held out.
