Zebras MATCH REPORTS

A narrow away win but a clean sheet and precious points gained on the league leaders.

A strong Westerly wind blowing down the length of the pitch made conditions difficult for both teams throughout the game.

After conceding from the kick-off, Brigg controlled the match and only a fine performance by Miners' goalkeeper and defenders kept the scoreline relatively close.

Brigg dominated a plucky young Teversal side, scoring a League-record win and maintaining their push for promotion.

Despite the heavy rainfall in the last few days, the pitch was in relatively good condition when Brigg travelled to the outskirts of Mansfield hoping to maintain their pressure on the league leaders.

A well-struck free kick in injury-time saw Brigg snatch the win in this entertaining New Year match.

The home team saw the game out despite a valiant late recovery from the Brigg team sending the large home crowd contingent happy, but Non-League football was the real winner overall in this festive season fixture.

A crowd of over six hundred spectators turned out to watch a highly competitive game between the two neighbouring teams which ended with a narrow victory for the home team.
