Samba Nottinghamshire Senior League
Division One
UNITED GRAYS FC 4 HUCKNALL TOWN RESERVES FC 2
Earlier in the season I went to Nabbs Lane in Hucknall to see United Grays Community FC, today I went to see United Grays FC who play on the back pitch at Basford United FC, their visitors were Hucknall Town Reserves who are a young side.
The game kicked off with Grays pushing forward and had three good chances to go ahead, but with brave saves from the keeper and one outstanding save from him in midair kept the scores level, but on 22 minutes, a diagonal ball was played to LETISSIER FLEMINGS on the edge off the penalty box who chipped the ball over the outcoming keeper as seen in the photo above to give his side a 1-0 lead. The rest of the half was very even with shots going wide from both sides.
Hucknall started the second half more brightly and on 53 minutes were awarded a penalty, to which BLAISE DURUAKU slotted home to even things up. This seemed to awaken Grays who within two minutes had re-taken the lead when a 30 yard bullet of a shot by LUKE JORDAN smashed the back of the net. In the 59th minute, Grays extended their lead to 3-1, as the ball ping ponged around the penalty area and JOSH WILSON scrambled it across the goal line.
Hucknall werent going to go down without fighting as they pressed forward and in the 71st minute, BLAISE DURUAKU reduced the arrears again from the penalty spot. Hucknall pushed forward in search of a equaliser but this left gaps at the back and this was exploited in the 81st minute when JOSH GARDNER made it 4-2 and wrapped up the points for the home side.
Must thank the United Grays manager Darran Korol for his help in the past few weeks, his clubs sponsors Kerrys Fruits and Veg have done me and Hazel a few christmas hampers which have been excellent for presents and saved us running around. Kerrys website is on this LINK
