Match was switched to Eckington, as Manor lined up without Rhys and Joe B. Manor were battling but conceded after 14 mins before Sam stroked home a penalty for his first of the season (27 mins). Eckington got a second and went in leading 2-1 at HT. Manor came out strong and determined and Matt H scored a brave goal beating the goalkeeper to a bouncing ball and heading into an empty net for his first of the season (42 mins). Sam put in a sweet free kick for Danny to flick home an unstoppable header to put Manor 3-2 up on 49 mins: another first goal of the season. But Eckington came straight back and equalised within a minute of the re-start. It looked well balanced as both sides battled hard in a tough and uncompromising game until an extremely harsh penalty award went Eckington's way on 62 mins and it proved to be the winner. Manor still had their chances but a combination of solid 'keeping and some good luck meant Eckington ran out narrow winners. Tremendous performances from the whole team, with Man of the Match awards to Joe H for a rock solid job as left back and to Matt H for a hard working performance on the other side of defence.
