Braintree 3-2 West Ham Utd XI

After carrying a big threat, Braintree took the lead as Bywaters clears fell to Davies who smashed the shot into the bottom corner after 13 minutes.

Turgott raced down the right, crossing the ball to Moncur who taps the ball towards goal for McCallum to equalize for the visitors.

Spence was penalised for a foul on Holman just outside the penalty area. The resulting fre-kick from the number 10 curled around the wall but hit an advertising board after the restart for Braintree.

Sadlier collected the ball on the left to race inside his full-back to smash an unstoppable shot past McDonald and inside the far post from about 20 yards. Great individual skill from the Republic of Ireland U19 forward to give the Iron the lead.

Three minutes later, a high cross was send directly to Sparkes to send a volleyed shot past Spiegel for an impressive finish, having a lot of time and space.

Braintree were back in front after 72 minutes as the London side failed to clear a Braintree corner with Holman whacking the ball pas Spiegel from 12 yards out.
