NPL Division One East Round-Up
Ossett United and Sheffield FC both came from behind and claimed dramatic late wins last night.
Ossett managed to win 2-1 against Lincoln United but they conceded early and didn’t equalise until the hour mark.
Aaron Haswell made amends for Saturday’s red card by firing home from James Walshaw’s flick-on.
Ify Ofoegbu has been a perennial hero for Ossett since joining in the New Year and he struck the winner in the 81st minute.
Sheffield FC threw themselves a lifeline in their battle to avoid the drop after scoring twice in the final five minutes to snatch a 3-2 win over Yorkshire Amateur.
Super-sub and debutant Sam Greenhouse’s tap-in sparked euphoric scenes, just minutes after James Baxendale’s beauty had levelled it up at 2-2.
Sheffield had taken a first half lead through Nathan Modest but second half goals from Nathan Cartman had put the Ammers in control.
