Reserves: Rovers 3 Morecambe 0

Posted on: Fri 28 Aug 2009

Tranmere Reserves won their opening totesport.com League match of the season on Wednesday afternoon, defeating Morecambe 3-0 at Cammell Laird FC.

Rovers' second string's season found the net through Michael Ricketts, Josh Macauley and Ryan Fraughan.

The home side took the lead on 22 minutes with an excellently worked goal. Fraughan's diagonal pass released Ross Rule on the right and he played the ball back to Charlie Barnett. The midfielder whipped in a cross allowing Ricketts to head home into the Morecambe net.
