INTER-DISTRICT MATCH
Played at Douglas Eyre Sports Centre on Saturday 13th January 2001
Hackney Under 11's 4, Orpington Under 11's 2.

Goals in the last seconds of each half helped Hackney to a hard fought victory over Orpington.
The visitors took the lead mid-way through the first half, when a mishit shot flat-footed the entire Hackney defence, the ball trickling into the corner of the net.
The home team responded and equalised when Gordon fired home through a packed defence.
From the restart, Hackney were extremely fortunate when a handily placed puddle on their own goal line held the ball up for the defence to clear. With seconds of the half left a speculative lob by Yilmaz was helped into his own net by the Orpington goalkeeper.

Orpington attacked strongly in the second half and scored a deserved equaliser with a well placed cross-shot.
Hackney heads did not drop and they retook the lead when Osei-Roach rounded the goalkeeper and scored following a fine move. The same player scored Hackney's fourth in the last minute when his shot bounced awkwardly past the visitor's keeper.

Hackney Under 11's: Thomas, Osei-Roach (Orchard), Thomas, Edun (Holmleigh), Langsdon (Grazebrook), Galligan-Johnson, Olasanoye (St. Monica's), Gordon (Daubeney), McIntyre (Baden Powell), Osei-Poku (St. Thomas's), Atherley-Buckridge (St. John of Jerusalem), Williams-Sabaroche (Tyssen), Yilmaz (Millfields), Duyile (Holy Trinity), James (William Patten).
