Buckland Athletic...3
Ipplepen...1
Buckland maintained their unbeaten league record against a competitive Ipplepen team who held a 1-0 lead at the break.
The visitors had taken the lead shortly before half-time despite lots of Buckland pressure, Evan having no chance with the snap-shot.
Beck almost opened the scoring after a great passing move but his powerful shot flew inches over.
Both Harry and Joey were denied what would have been fine solo efforts by Ipplepen's talented goalkeeper.
The home side were passing the ball really well and were unfortunate to be behind.
Buckland were back on level terms soon after the break when Adam notched from one of Mason's trademark corners, scoring the team's first headed goal at the back stick.
Declan's long-range strike then gave Buckland the lead, firing home from near the halfway line - his goal means all of the team's outfield players have now been on the scoresheet.
With Harry and Georgia pulling strings in midfield, and Jamie and Josh attacking down the flanks, Buckland were in control, Declan and Jamie snuffing out any threat from the visitors and playing the ball out from the back.
Adam gave Buckland a deserved third, running into the box to fire home with a low drive.
A special word for referee Paul, who successfully managed to blow the whistle at the start and end of each half.
