An early start for lads with a 9am kick off against Bishop Auckland

The lads started well kicking down hill 1st half and grabbing an early goal thanks to Dumi which seen United go in at half time 1-0 in front.

United knew they were going to be up against it in the second half kicking up hill into the wind but United started off the way they finished the 1st half and grabbed a second thanks to a mazy solo run by Aidan and great finish to make it 2-0

United pressed and pressed after some pressure from Auckland and a goal line scramble seen the ball go over the line only for the referee to wave his hands and say play on and the goal wasn't given and unfortunately there is no VAR at Auckland just yet.

More pressure from United and what was deemed handball by a United player seen another goal disallowed. It was beginning to look like it wasn't going to be United's day.

Shortly after the handball fiasco, Auckland grabbed one back by a one of there players getting free through the United defence and scoring and it was just a matter of time before Auckland grabbed the equaliser which happened about 2 minutes before full time

A draw but it wasn't a fair result and a performance which should have seen United win this game 4 or maybe 5-1

Great all round performance by every single player but Jake was given man of the match for his consistent hard workout throughout the game but there were some superb performance by all and it was good to get Riley and Alfie in the starting line up, well done boys and well done referee....... NOT!!!
