⚽Northern Premier League (Midlands Div)⚽
Sporting Khalsa 2 Rugby Town 0
Played at Guardian Warehousing Arena
With this result, Khalsa leap-frogged their opponents in the table and their proximity to each other was evident in this closeley fought encounter between two well-matched sides. Town were fastest out of the blocks and threatened in the first couple of minutes with a couple of efforts coming to nothing and it was a while before Khalsa could impose themselves. Khalsa upped the ante and you sensed a goal was in the offing and it duly arrived on 30 minutes when Landell was quickest onto a ball over the top; racing across the 18 yard line he beat two defenders before smashing a ball into the far corner⚽.
Town continued to push but their efforts were ably dealt with by the Khalsa defence. A second goal for Khalsa came on 45 minutes following good work on the right, a superb cross was floated in for McGrady to nod in at the worst possible time for the visitors⚽.
The second half was very much a replay of what had gone before with Khalsa having the lions share of possession while negating most of Towns attacks.
This was a thoroughly entertaining match for fan and neutral alike.
