U15s are cup winners!

By Rupert King

After falling agonisingly short in last year’s final, our Under 15s finally got their hands on the trophy in Woodhall this morning.

The boys got off to a blistering start, pushing Discoveries back from the off. Town were relentless in the early stages and went 2-0 up with just 10 minutes gone, both finished by Josh Dickinson.

Discoveries slowly made their way into the game and pulled one back with a highly contentious goal. A ball from the centre made its way out to the right side forward a couple of yards offside but the linesman’s flag stayed down and it was game on again.

A fiercely contested end to the half saw Discoveries pushing for an equaliser but Leo pulled off a couple of fine saves to keep Town in front.

With just seconds to go before the break, the Poachers counter attacked and Josh bagged his hat trick for 3-1.

Into the second half and Town controlled the game well. Discoveries started to commit players forward, but the defence stood firm as the minutes ticked down.

With 10 to go, a deflected shot snuck in at the far post and set up a nervous finish at 3-2.

The referee found over 6 minutes of added time from somewhere but the boys got over the line.

Under 15 league cup winners!

Up the Town!
