Upton United Juniors v Kinsley Boys reserves

Doncaster Saturday League, Division One
Upton United Juniors 3 Kinsley Boys reserves 2 (att 35)

My second Doncaster League game in the space of three days, and if the fixture list is correct there may more to come next week.

This match was a dead rubber featuring the league's bottom two sides. The lack of quality showed at times, but that didn't prevent it being an entertaining 90 minutes.

There was little to choose between the teams. Upton scored early and always had the edge. Their opener was the only first half goal, and it was cancelled out by a Kinsley equaliser just a minute after the break.

Upton got back in front, but Kinsley came back to level again, before the home side finally secured the points with what turned out to be the winner. Despite the win they're destined to finish bottom.

As their name suggests, Upton United Juniors focus mainly on youth football. They have an impressive home ground, with a pavilion housing changing rooms and a  bar, and a large playing field with space for several pitches.
