Jackson rescues point for Wombwell with last gasp stunner

EV2 Sheffield & Hallamshire County Senior League Round-Up

Premier Division 

Wombwell Main hero Atley Jackson

Atley Jackson was Wombwell Main’s injury-time hero as his 33-yard free kick rescued a point in the pulsating 2-2 draw at Dodworth Miners Welfare.

The dramatic finish rested many demons for Wombwell, especially manager Terry Simon who sprinted onto the field punching the air.

Not quite Bob Stokoe, but he went a few yards.

The Main had to fight back twice.

Aaron Brotherton leapt like a salmon to head Dodworth ahead against the run of play in the first half. 

Ryan Wingrove then pounced on a loose ball to equalise.

Jack Owen’s penalty restored Dodworth’s lead and the hosts missed several chances to seal their win.

Their failure to take them presented Wombwell with an open door and Jackson went through it with a stunning effort that flew in off the crossbar.

A minute’s silence held to remember Wombwell goalkeeper Dale Crossland’s granddad John Seeviour
