TROUBLED Worcester City won their first pre-season friendly 1-0 at Stourport Swifts.

With a string of director resignations and a return to their home city seemingly no closer, Bromsgrove Sporting's tenants at least experienced success on the pitch.

Centre-half Tom Sharpe scored the only goal with a header on 43 minutes.

Forward Kyle Perry hit the bar in the second half for Vanarama National League North side City against their Midland League Premier Division hosts.

Former City player Dave McDermott, one of a string of trialists hoping to impress manager Carl Heeley, was stretchered off with an injury 10 minutes from time.
