SCHOOLS' FOOTBALL -
Crisp Shield - Quarter Final
Played at Douglas Eyre Sports Centre, on Saturday 5th February 2000
HACKNEY Under 11's 2, SUTTON Under 11's 1

Hackney needed some spirited defending and more than a little luck to progress to the semi-finals of the crisp shield.

The local side were on course for a win after Adrian Clifton added to Ben Stokes' early strike, to put Hackney 2-1 up after the interval.

But Sutton staged a spirited reply, taking control in midfield and giving the home defence some anxious moments. An outstanding display by centre-back Liam Smyth held Hackney together, but the Surrey side will rue the two clear chances they missed in the closing minutes.

Hackney will now meet the Essex side Thurrock in the semi-finals on 11th March. Hackney Under 11's: Gultekin (Woodberry Down), Kates (Millfields), Drew (Gayhurst), Smyth (William Patten), Bingham (Baden Powell),, Agdomar (Tyssen), Ozomusi (Benthal), Stokes (Gainsborough), Marriott-Dixon (St. Matthias), Clifton (Princess May), Asiedu (Holy Trinity).
