The Bucks
Buxton suffered their second home defeat in a week at the weekend, losing 2-1 to Chester.
Jack Bainbridge gave the visitors the lead before Tai Sodje equalised for the Bucks, but Bainbridge struck again midway through the second half to seal the win for the Seals.
Reflecting on the performance, manager John McGrath said:
“I didn’t think we were particularly good today again. We go a goal down to what I would consider a bit of a goalkeeping error, and the second goal, the kid scores a header from 18 yards. Everything in between the two goals, obviously our goal, we didn’t trouble them enough.”
