PERSHORE Town beat Southam United 2-0 in Midland League Division One courtesy of a Jamie Clarke brace.
Town controlled the game for large periods and should have won by a bigger margin.
Captain Shaun Griffiths had a header cleared off the line after 11 minutes and Shaun Cooke saw an effort saved soon after.
Town’s pressure told when Ollie Casey put through Clarke to beat the keeper with a left-foot shot after 32 minutes.
A few minutes later the same combination repeated the move with the same outcome.
The second half was much the same with Will Gayton’s free-kick just going over and Damien Fearn shooting wide.
Fellow substitute Kallum Powell had a few opportunities to increase the lead late on as Town claimed a well-deserved three points.
Keenan Meakin-Richards and Ahmed Ali (two) helped Bromsgrove Sporting to a 3-0 win over Hinckley watched by 420 fans.
