On 20 minutes the deadlock was broken, Aidan Duell beat his man down the line before squaring to twin brother Ben Duell who was clipped in the box and a penalty was awarded.

Up stepped Ben Watson who made no mistake finding the side netting of the goal.

Right on the stroke of half-time Rillington pinched an equaliser.

Good work out wide meant a well placed cross was delivered into a very dangerous area, Pete Diaz-Thomson could only palm it out with Jack Sawdon scoring the all-important equaliser.

With five minutes played in the second half the hosts had turned it around completely.

Diaz-Thomson was beaten to the ball by Rillington striker Gary Walker who slotted into the empty net to put his side in front.

The lead was only held by the away side for a couple of minutes. Damon Craig picked the ball up out wide and delivered a teasing cross into the box with the Rillington defender unfortunately heading past his own goalkeeper for an equaliser.

The hosts nearly had a quick turn around themselves when Craig’s corner found Smurthwaite in the box. On the volley he hooked brilliantly towards the back post and would have scored if it wasn’t for once again the defender on the line who cleared well.

A long range strike was saved well by Diaz-Thomson and another good save from Diaz-Thomson kept the scores level and moments later George Sault had a chance which was blocked well.

A Goldsborough corner found centre-half Richard Davies whose header looked to win it, however the Rillington keeper reacted brilliantly and palmed it away.

It was a tale of two halves when Duncombe Park Reserves entertained Goal Sports on Saturday..

Park started sloppy in the first half, and Sports opened the scoring in the 16th minute with a Marvin Atkinson goal.

James King finally got the breakthrough with an 87th-minute equaliser.

Park’s man of the match was Percy Marwood

Heslerton slipped to a 4-0 defeat on the road at in-form Sinnington.

Sinnington went ahead in fortuitous fashion as a rebound fell for Archie Turner to stab home.

Then a long ball from the Sinnington defence fell for Luke Balderson to outrun his marker and lob the advancing keeper Simon Clark.

Heslerton nearly pulled that all important goal back as Morgan Kendrew latched onto a fine ball from Rob Ruston.

Kendrew beat the keeper only to see his effort cannon off the foot of a post.

The second half saw Heslerton continued to press with Kendrew and Jack Burnett going close, before Ruston saw an aerial effort sail over the bar and Tom Stockdale fires narrowly wide, again from a Kendrew corner.

Inevitably, with the visitors throwing all they had their hosts would eventually capitalise on the break.

Another fine stop by Clark from Balderson would see the loose ball tapped home by a Heslerton defender for an own goal, before Sinnington’s captain Jon Mitchell added a fourth in added time.
