Ledesma dragged Albion level after the hosts had gone ahead from the penalty spot.

Reserves Win at WycombePosted on: Wed 26 Jan 2011

Triallist Emmanuel Jorge Ledesma was on target as Albion's reserves came from behind to win 2-1 at Wycombe.
Scott Donnelly netted an early penalty for the hosts, after he was tripped inside the box, but Ledesma - recently released by QPR - made the perfect start by netting from close range on 16 minutes.
Albion bossed the second half, bringing a number of saves out of Wanderers keeper Steve Arnold, before substitute James Smith fired home the winner with 19 minutes remaining.
The victory is the third win on the bounce for Albion's unbeaten second string this season and development coach Luke Williams was delighted with the performance.
He told seagulls.co.uk, "It was a superb all-round performance. With the difficult conditions and the more physical approach of the opposition, everything was set up to make life difficult for us, but the lads gave the perfect response.
"We controlled the game, especially in the second-half, and James Smith's goal ensured we got the victory our performance deserved."
Ledesma was a stand-out performer on the night and Williams is keen to see more in the coming weeks.
"He did very well, worked really hard and it was a great finish for his goal. He's training with us at the moment and we certainly want to have another look at him in our next reserve outing."
Albion: (4-4-2) Poke; Cook, Dunk, Strong, Redwood (Ryan Thomson 41); Kasim, Battipiedi, Caskey (James Smith 23), Baz; Hart, Ledesma (Agdestein 75). Subs: Simmonds, Woodley, James (GK).
