For all the pressing Woodkirk didn't open the scoring until the 12th minute with a good strike from Hurley. Followed by a goal for Appleby on 14 mins after some excellent play down the right from Diskin. With that goal Glen began to play and push Woodkirk back and came close with a shot just over the bar.

A goal mouth scramble saw the ball poked home giving Rhodes in the Woodkirk goal no chance. The game was scrappy with neither team passing the ball. 14 mins to play Appleby was replaced by Spedding.
