Hucknall Sports U8's White 4 Stapleford Villa Orange 3

Sunday 8th February 2004

Playing uphill and against the wind Hucknall Sports u-8 white were 3 goals down by half time against Stapleford Villa Orange in the Green division of the YEL.

 

But with the wind in their favour a great second half display clinched all 3 points, starting with an incisive through ball which Joe Gill latched onto.  The second goal was a pearler as Joe Priestley scored direct from a corner, the equaliser was from another Joe, Joe Hewitt.  Villa lifted their game but with good defending from Samuel Abbott and saves from keeper Jack Grainger, these men of the match kept the visitors out.  With only seconds left another excellent Joe Priestley corner set Paice Lees to poke in the winner making it 4-3 to Sports.
