HARWICH AND HOLLAND U18s BUZZING IN THRILLING 4-4 DRAW

Terry Francis30 Aug 2024 - 08:39

THE POINTS WERE SHARED AT THE CONCLUSION OF A PULSATING LOCAL DERBY IN FRONT OF A GOOD CROWD OF APPRECIATIVE SUPPORTERS

Holland took the lead with an early goal but Harwich equalised with a well-taken, powerful header from Oscar Bond.
The visitors were proving to be strong opposition for the Shrimpers and went ahead again with a well-worked second goal.
Harwich were doing well to match their opponents and Dylan Crowley levelled the scores before half time.
After the break Holland came out all guns blazing to establish a 4-2 lead.
Facing a daunting task, Harwich showed great character and determination not to be beaten.
Luca Rhodes scored the young Shrimpers' third goal to put them back into contention.
Harwich were cock-a-hoop when Dylan Crowley netted an excellent equalising goal.
Although Holland were still dangerous, Harwich had the impetus gained from their comeback and in the closing stages they sought victory. Logan Humphries had an effort clawed back from the goal-line and in the last minute Jack Elvestad's free kick struck the inside of the post.
Luke Harrison's Under-18 team are playing a highly entertaining brand of attacking football and the next opportunity to see them in action at the Gwinnell & Sons Royal Oak will be on Thursday 12th September when they entertain Witham Town, kick off 7.45pm.
