⚽Midland Football League Premier Div⚽
Shifnal Town 2 Stourport Swifts 0
Played at Acoustafoam Stadium,Shifnal
Shifnal were at it from the off against 2nd in the league Stourport and it paid early dividends on 12 minutes. Hesson raced onto a ball over the top, had the edge over the defender and was unceremoniously brought down to hand the hosts an early penalty,despatched by Thomas, and reduce the visitors to 10⚽. This didn't seem to unsettle Swifts too much as they reorganised and continued to go forward. Both teams were going for it with Town having an edge and the visitors always looking threatening .
The hour mark was incident-laden with Town having a good chance wasted, Town keeper thinking it was good idea to play out against 3 Swift players and losing the ball(lucky for him a defender was on the line to boot the resulting shot away) and Hartnett, for the visitors, being booked (seemingly with a second yellow and a resulting red). The visitors were showing tremendous resilence, resisting everything the hosts could throw at them, that is until 89 minutes when Hesson sent the ball into the rh top corner⚽.
This was by far the best game we have seen so far this season with two skilful sides intent on playing attacking football and giving the spectators full value for money.Credit to Stourport for giving as good as they got when down to ten men and keeping themselves in the game until the final minutes.
