Bridlington Town remain unbeaten under new manager Mike Thompson after victory at Lincoln United on Tuesday.
Mike Thompson secured his first league win of the season, as his team came out 3-1 winners away from home against Lincoln United, despite playing 50 minutes with a man short!
It was a fairly even start to the game, with both sides creating decent chances. Bridlington were the first to break the deadlock, though, as Andy Norfolk’s outswinging corner was cleared, but only to the edge of the box. There to meet the ball in space was Ali Aydemir, who’s excellent, first-time, side-footed volley found the back of the net to give the visitors a 37-minute advantage.
Just three minutes later, however, Bridlington were reduced to ten men, as midfielder Jack Griffin was dismissed for a late challenge directly in front of the technical area.
The dismissal clearly didn’t affect the team, as moments before the half time whistle, Aydemir grabbed his and Bridlington’s second goal of the game.
Bridlington weathered a spell of heavy pressure from Lincoln, before going on to score a third goal. It was that man again - Aydemir saw his shot saved well by Ben Bottomley but was able to smash home the rebound to complete his hattrick.
The hosts did manage to pull one back through Harry Millard, though this only proved to be a consolation. Bridlington left Lincolnshire with their first three points of the season.
