Mary Dendy 4 High Lane 2
Two goals in second half stoppage time from Nick Brunker and Matty Morris saw Mary Dendy take all three points and stay top of the ECL after a frantic finale against second place High Lane at Great Warford. The first half was goal less with both sides cancelling each other out but the game came to life on fifty minutes when Dendy substitute Matt Stott fired home from the edge of the area after Matt Morris had unsettled goalkeeper Nick Winstanley. Jack Gorrie in action for High Lane High Lane deservedly drew level two minutes later when Dave Wilde who was a handful all afternoon, headed home a great cross from Jack Gorrie . Matt Morris kept up his record of scoring in every game as he crashed home a half volley from sixteen yards with ten minutes remaining but again High Lane came back, substitute Tony Graydon, on for Gorrie, in acres of space on the right wing cut inside and took everyone by surprise by unleashing a stunning drive into the top corner. If referee Neil Johnson had blown for time then, 2-2 would have been a fair reflection of play but Dendy are showing a new tenacity this season and when Simon Nicolson swung in a corner a minute into stoppage time Nick Brunker got clear of his marker and headed home the winner at the near post . Two minutes later Dendy added a fourth, Matty Morris reacting first as Nick Winstanley saved brilliantly from Chris Coppenhall but could only push his stinging free kick into the path of the inform Morris who gratefully fired home.
