WOKINGHAM & Emmbrook climbed to sixth place in the Hellenic League Division One East table following a 2-0 success at Wallingford Town.
Sumas started brightly and Sam Lawrence-Whiting went close with an early free-kick, although the home side did have a chance which they blasted over.
Chris Hood shot over at the other end before Lawrence-Whiting’s 20-yard effort rebounded off the cross-bar.
The first chance of the second half fell to the away side as George Marsh went close before Hood nodded over Chris Newlove’s fine cross.
Lawrence-Whiting burst through but was denied by the goalkeeper’s out-stretched food, while Wokingham’s Sean Woodward was also forced into an outstanding save when Wallingford had a chance against the run of play.
Sumas did take the lead late on, however, as another Newlove cross was not cleared and Lawrence-Whiting was on hand to prod home in the 83rd minute.
And he then turned provider as the away side sealed the win, a lovely pass to Marsh well finished two minutes later.
