Truro City recorded their third consecutive pre-season victory with a dominant showing over Tiverton Town.

Playing their first match for two weeks after last Saturday’s game away to Tavistock was cancelled, Truro raced from the traps with both Johnson-Fisher and Ben Adelsbury going close early on.

The deadlock was then broken after 10 minutes.

Dean switched play from tight to the right touchline out to the opposite flank.

A pinpoint pass found Ryan Law who crossed deep and with Dean continuing his run, the Exeter City academy graduate headed past Joe Manning.

Almost from the restart, Truro then doubled their lead with Tiverton very much the architects of their own downfall.

Trying to play out from the back, Tiverton lost the ball and with Johnson-Fisher in on goal, he finished low past Manning.

With Tiverton at something far worse than sixes and sevens, City should have had a third shortly after Johnson-Fisher’s strike.

Seidou Sanogo found Tyler Harvey in space on the edge of the box, but City’s talisman's effot was saved by Manning.

As the half wore on, Tiverton did finally settle into proceedings.

There were two more close shaves for City as Jay Murray’s curler went just past the post before Hall beat Lavercombe with another effort from distance, only to see the ball crash off the crossbar.

City came close again as Dean and Johnson-Fisher were thwarted by Manning.

After the turnaround, City dominated the ball and created further chances while defending solidly at the other end.

On the hour, Johnson-Fisher pressed Manning into action again and then with 15 minutes left, Dean and Harvey combined only for substitute C Trialist to fire over the bar.

B Trialist then looked like he would continue an impressive pre-season campaign with a goal, but the overworked Manning denied him.

As the game approached its final stages, City found another gear.

Yassine En-Neyah fed Harvey after great work by Law and a last-ditch block prevented Tiverton from conceding again.

Finally a third goal for Truro did duly arrive nine minutes from time and an exceptional visiting press won the ball in the Tiverton half.

En-Neyah fed the onrushing C Trialist who lifted the ball over Manning with a fine finish.

Truro continues to impress under new boss John Askey, with a local derby against Cornish rivals Falmouth Town on Tuesday for the Aubrey Wilkes Trophy.
