differently. On 15 minutes Louis Short’s screamer for Wick brought a tremendous save from
the always impressive Underwood. The equally impressive Trott saved from point blank in
the 28 minute after a defensive error. On the brink of half time Underwood made another
th
great save to push Liam Towler’s goal bound free kick wide of the target. Wick started the
second period on the front foot and with only a minute gone Underwood saved with his feet
from Short. Wick carried on pressing forcing Hill to clear off the line and on the hour another
goal line clearance was made from Todd Carter’s powerful header. Although Wick enjoyed
second half dominance Ruardean were always a threat on the break. Wick’s day was
summed up in the 89 minute when Underwood again saved brilliantly spreading himself to
th
thwart Short when through on goal ensuring the game finished with honours even.
Finally, Little Stoke welcomed Rockleaze Rangers to The Park and it was the home side
who came out of the blocks quickly, with the pressure eventually proving too much for
Rockleaze when Luke Meacham found himself through on goal, lobbing the ball over Jordan
Dunning for a 1-0 lead. Rockleaze found a footing in the game and Gorazd Gigov made two
excellent saves to keep Little Stoke ahead, but on 35 minutes it was Stoke’s Jack Burgess
who was fouled by Dunning in the box and Lewis Hughes smashed the penalty home for 2-0.
The second half started slowly and there was little action until the 69 minute when a
th
diagonal free kick towards Hillard was touched on for Liam Jenkins to smash home with his
first touch after coming on as a substitute. Rockleaze ended the game with ten men after a
harsh red card, but the damage was already done at 3-0 to Little Stoke.
