Corinthian-Casuals cruised past a strongly favoured Worthing side in the opening day of the Ryman League Division One season.
A first half brace from Emmanuel Akokhia was enough to see of the coastal visitors but easily could've been more in a dominant display. Opening with a well placed shot in the 4th minute, Akokhia added to his tally (pictured left) by rounding the keeper to slot into an empty net just before the half hour mark. It could've easily been more; Diego Maradona forced excellent saves from the Worthing keeper and kept the scoreline to a respectable level.
An often feisty affair, Casuals put in a performance which saw them defend well after the break yet still look like the more likely to score. Worthing, who'd had an excellent pre-season, scoring 16 goals in their last three games offered very little and only mustered one shot on target all game.
