Glasshoughton Welfare are one win away from Bramall Lane after a magnificent quarter-final victory at Hallam.

The Welfare will now visit Penistone Church in April in the semi-finals, bidding to complete a tremendous first campaign under the leadership of Darren Holmes and Lee Vigars.

A leap from Callum Harrison gave Glasshoughton the lead ten minutes before the break.

Glasshoughton goalkeeper Jordan Bradshaw kept out Lee Stevenson’s header straight after half-time.

The visitors then killed their hosts off. Welfare caught Hallam out on the break and Elliott Williams finished off the move.

Williams added his second goal with a near post finish.

Tom Roebuck’s last minute goal was a mere consolation for Hallam, who can now fully focus on their play-offs bid.
