Norfolk N Good dropped their first point of the season this week in the Aldercar Monday 5 a side league as they were held to a 4-4 with STW Double D in what proved a cracking game for the neutrals. Despite twice going ahead early on STW found themselves trailing the league leaders late in the second half, however with Dean Hutsby in superb form it was two late goals that ensured a share of the spoils for STW and in turn halted Norfolk's impressive winning run so far this season.
There was another exciting between Inter YM and The New White Bull that ended 6-5 in The Bull's favour and keeps them in fifth place in the league. It was a real end to end game with plenty of chances for both sides but it was Liam Hodgkinson in the Inter goal that continued to frustrate the White Bull time and time again with a number of world class stops between the sticks, preventing what could have been a much bigger score-line.
Craig Thrall was also unlucky to be on the losing team as his side The Youngsters and Old Guy were beaten 5-2 by in form side Langley Milan. With Langley gunning for a forth straight victory, they bolted from the blocks and would have scored more but for Thrall's heroics in the Youngsters goal. The win keeps up Milan's hopes of catching second placed side Heanor Lions who remain 3 points clear of their rivals after their 5-0 victory this week.
