HINDLEY JUNIORS U21s 6-5 ASHTON ON MERSEY
Hindley Juniors U21s got back to winning ways on Saturday with a dramatic victory away at Ashton on Mersey!
Having gone a goal behind early on, the lads responded well. Pressure led to a shot from Braedon which was well saved by the Ashton keeper, but the rebound fell kindly to Bren, who made no mistake to draw us level.
We then took the lead following a great long ball from Kris. Bren picked it up, held off the defender and got his shot away to make it 2-1.
Ashton weren’t giving up and managed to bring the game back to 2-2.
Just before half-time, Bren completed his hat-trick! Tyler released Kian down the right, who delivered a great ball across for Bren to side-foot home and restore our lead at 3-2.
The second half saw us take control of the game. Kian pressured the Ashton centre-half into an error, allowing Kris to bundle the ball home to make it 4-2.
Josh then picked out Kian on the edge of the box. Kian composed himself, sorted his feet out and fired a low shot into the bottom left corner for 5-2.
Unfortunately, with only one substitute available, tired legs began to show. In a crazy 15-minute spell, Ashton managed to score three times to bring the game level at 5-5.
We were understandably disappointed to see our lead disappear, but the lads weren’t finished!
Cam pounced on an error between the Ashton keeper and defender before delivering a cross for Kayden M. to fire home the winner bang on the full-time whistle!
FULL TIME: ASHTON ON MERSEY 5-6 HINDLEY JUNIORS U21s! 🔥
A brilliant team effort, plenty of goals and three massive points. What a way to get back to winning ways!
