FA Vase
Pontefract Collieries 2-4 Hemsworth Miners Welfare
Nick Guest scored during Hemsworth’s FA Vase win at Pontefract Collieries
Hemsworth had to work hard to get past local rivals Pontefract and book a place in the second qualifying round.
The Wells enjoyed a period of early pressure which saw Adam Wilson score a rare goal, Billy Law hit the post and Nick Guest have a shot saved.
Pontefract responded fairly quickly through Josh Corbett.
Guest restored Hemsworth’s lead close to half-time with a header from Brice Tiani’s cross.
In the second half, Dom Blair scored a stunning volley out of nothing to extend Hemsworth’s lead.
Jimmy Williams brought Pontefract back into it, but Billy Law ensured that the Wells put their name in the hat with their fourth goal of the afternoon.
