Toe To Toe
The Beagle (black) and Church Fenton battle for the ball at Chesney Field, Acomb, during a quarter-final tie in the York Football League's Junior Cup.
Despite being reduced, in the 72nd minute, to 10 men because of a second yellow card, for a display of dissent towards the referee, Church Fenton equalised, deep into stoppage time at the end of the second half, to make it 3-3, then won the penalty shootout, 5-4. Amid failing light, the Beagle's third spot-kick was saved.
