North came away from Blanche Pierre Lane with a place in the Stranger Cup final after a thrilling 6-5 win over St Martin's on Tuesday night.

It is the second successive time that North have beaten Saints 6-5.

North led 1-0, went 2-1 down and struck back to lead 4-2 at half time. It was 4-4 after an hour, then North took a 6-4 lead before Saints got one back.

"The spectators are certainly getting their money's worth," North coach Mick Le Prevost told BBC Guernsey.

"It was a fantastic game - good for the spectators to watch but not so good for the coaches," he added.
