A LATE strike from Kieran Wakefield earned Alvechurch a 3-2 victory at Boldmere St Michaels in a five-goal pre-season thriller.
Wakefield struck nine minutes from time after taking the ball beyond the Boldmere goalkeeper to seal victory for Church at the Amber Arena.
That came after a trialist put the visitors into the lead on 19 minutes before Manny Ilesanmi struck two minutes later to double Alvechurch’s advantage.
Boldmere halved the deficit on 31 minutes and equalised in first-half injury time to send the teams in level at the break.
However, Wakefield put the away side back in front on 81 minutes to ensure Church remain unbeaten in their first three pre-season fixtures.
Alvechurch continue their pre-season campaign against Shepshed Dynamo on Saturday, July 18 with kick-off at 3pm at Lye Meadow.
