A superb team effort saw Exmouth earn a 1-0 victory over the impressive Sidmouth Warriors. United started strong and took the lead through a deflected Joe G corner early in the first half. The visitors worked their way into the game but Exmouth's organisation, personified by captain Dylan M, limited them to a few long range efforts.
After the interval the Warriors pressed harder and created some excellent shooting chances. An outstanding performance from Goalkeeper Harry KR demonstrated a perfect blend of athleticism and instinct including two phenomenal diving saves. A few Exmouth counter attacks almost extended the lead but in the end one goal was enough to seal a well-earned victory.

Heavitree Youth 1-0 Exmouth United
Exmouth's boys were unlucky not to score in a very close match at Heavitree. On a cold windy Saturday we came up against a good passing side who dominated much of the first half and took their chance when it came to take the lead. The second half began with Kuba S creating a chance by chasing down the opponents to give himself a shooting opportunity. Exmouth applied some excellent pressure and created a number of good chances, including Jack G hitting the post. Apart from an amazing reaction save from Lewis A much of the second half pressure came from United. However, the hosts held on for the win. Exmouth can be pleased with the improvements in keeping their shape and working as a team.
