Mr Mountain, Acting Head of PE, provided the following match report:

“From the off we were on the back foot, with Waltham starting strong and having a few shots from long range but nothing really troubling Lindley. Then, on the back of a neat ball from Grundy, Hall skipped past two defenders and the goalkeeper to put the ball into an empty net. 1-0.

“The lead was short lived though as the away side hit back with a long shot that nestled in the corner of the net. Withernsea then regained the lead from the edge of the box after some good footwork from Neal saw him find space and lob the goalkeeper to make it 2-1. Both sides had some great chances, but no more goals were scored in the half.

“Withernsea were again under pressure early in the second half and conceded from a neat finish from a corner to make it 2-2. From this moment, Waltham really upped the pressure but Withernsea were equal to the challenge and the score remained level. Then, in the last 10 minutes, it was a great advert for school football - it was really end-to-end stuff, with both sides having chances to win but neither being able to capitalise.

“The game then went to the lottery of penalties which, like the game itself, didn't disappoint. Some great penalties were scored and some really good saves were made. Unfortunately, it wasn't to be our day, but the boys can be proud of their efforts."
