Alyth Win U12 Woody's Cup

AJY Woody's Cup Final
Alyth Belsize 3 Stonegrove Park 2
Monday, 5 May, 2008

Alyth U12's had not won one of the four league encounters against Stonegrove Park this season.

Stonegrove had done the hard work knocking out league leaders HMH in the first round and were clear favourites to win this final.

However, from the outset the match looked evenly poised and the scoreline reflected that. Stonegrove drew first blood, followed by an equaliser from Alyth and then a second for Stonegrove before half time.

Alyth equalised midway throught the second half and both sides had chances squandered to leave them at 2-2 at full time. The first five minutes changed nothing but Alyth scored with minutes to go.

A final corner and long-range effort going wide from Stonegrove ended a tense and absorbing contest, a great spectacle even for the disappointed Stonegrove supporters.

Alyth's goalscorers were Matthew Segal with a double, and Billy Howes.
