Jewish News junior review – week twenty one
Sunday afternoon saw the latest round of action played in the Jewish News Maccabi Junior Football…
Brady Maccabi booked their place in the final of the Minor Cup after they beat Alyth Belsize Black 3-2 on penalties, after the sides played out a 3-3 draw.
In Division One, the Hendon inter-club match between the Reds and Blues ended in a 2-2 draw, meaning the Blues are now two points off top spot.
In Division Two, Hendon United White consolidated third spot thanks to a 2-1 win over HMH Tel Aviv.
NWLJ are two points behind them following a 2-1 win over HMH Eilat.
In what was the proverbial game of two halves, HMH had gone into the break 1-0 up thanks to an unstoppable volley. However, in a fantastic turnaround for the Jets, Raphael Moses drew the sides level, and with just 90 seconds of the match remaining, Sam Ucko pounced on hesitant defending to claim the win.

U10
Hendon United White moved three points clear at the top of the Division One table thanks to a 5-2 win over HMH Eilat.
Zack Mason and Ben Corney scored two each, with Gabriel Samson also on target.
In what was a tightly fought contest between two hungry teams, it was the wind which was the real winner.
Eilat began strongly and dominated the first half with the score line tied at 1-1 at half-time. The second half was more evenly contested with an early exchange of goals taking the score to 3-2 in favour of HIS White, before they managed to take control towards the end of the game with two further goals to seal the victory.
