North East Amateur Shield Quarter-Final
IJLW Brazil
Wilkinson, Davison, Churchley, Walker, Kennedy, Paterson, Freath, Creighton, Katirai (Slack 55), Bull, Goodliff.
After going behind to a good individual goal, Brazil fought their way back into the game and equalized through Ewan Paterson, following in after Les Goodliff’s shot was parried after some good work on the left by James Katirai.
A stunning volley by Mark Freath gave the visitors the lead in the second half and from there they never looked back. Man of the match, Matthew Creighton latched onto Goodliff’s through ball, rounded the keeper and scored to set up a semi-final at Ryton, on March 19th. A late penalty was little consolation for P&G as Brazil beat them for the second time in three weeks.
