Under 16s take on and beat a top side, Under 15s win again

Gainsborough Trinity Under 16s took on one of the top teams in the division, Wrawby Rovers.

Trinity started very well and soon found the back of Wrawby’s net, but a dubious offside decision denied the Blues of their early lead.

Gainsborough kept their chins up and kept going, and were soon back in front when the ball came to midfielder Ben Wray who slotted home.
