CMB romped to a fifth straight Lancashire Amateur League Division One victory with a dominant 4-0 win at Little Lever.

They killed off Little Lever SC Reserves with three early goals to maintain their unbeaten record and promotion push.

Jon Saxon opened the scoring when he drilled home a low shot following a goalmouth scramble after a corner.

Chris Tonge extended the lead minutes later when he outpaced his defender before coolly slotting the ball past the advancing keeper.

Tonge made it three with a powerful header from an inswinging corner.

Little Lever came into the game more in the second half as CMB eased off, but the visitors extended their lead when man of the match Andy Warburton played a through ball for substitute Liam Carr to finish clinically when one-on-one with the keeper.

The game will give CMB a great deal of confidence ahead of their Lancashire County Cup quarter-final tie at East Lancashire side BAE Canberra on Saturday at 1.30pm.
