Oldham off and running with comfortable win over Braintree
Posted Sunday, August 11, 2024 by PA
Oldham made an impressive start to the new Vanarama National League campaign with a 3-0 win at home to Braintree.
Jes Uchegbulam and Harry Charsley struck in the first half for Micky Mellon’s side before Braintree were awarded a penalty on the stroke of half-time.
However, Inih Effiong’s spot-kick was saved and Mike Fondop wrapped up the points with a third for Oldham before the hour mark.
After finishing 10th last season, optimism was high at Boundary Park and Uchegbulam fired the hosts ahead early on with a slick finish before Charsley tapped home a second from a long throw.
Braintree’s hopes of a revival were hit when Matt Hudson denied Effiong from the penalty spot before half-time and Fondop rounded off a fine day for Oldham with a smart finish in the 59th minute.
