A DOUBLE from Asia FC's Sajad Sher helped the Rochdale side beat a very jaded looking Canaries.

Canaries began the game the livelier but looked very suspect on the break. Suleman Hafeji looked good for Canaries on the right and nearly put his side ahead after a great run that began in his own half.

However it was Asia FC who scored first through Raza Ahmed. Instead of resting on their laurals theywent looking for the second and got it.

A lack of concentration from the Canaries back two allowed man of the match Sajad Sher to double the lead five minutes from half time.

The game was settled by Sajad when he broke the off-side trap to calmly get his second and Asia's third on 65 minutes.

Canaries tried in vain to get something out of the game but the damage had been done. Asia's back two of Saeed Ahmed and Shiraaz Hussain looked very accomplished. The former of the two the club's oldest player at 37.
