Kington Town 1 Ettingshall 1

SCOTT Jackson netted a last-minute equaliser to extend Kington's drawing sequence in the Premier Division of the West Midlands League to three games.

The result was a fair reflection on a well-contested game and left the home team locked in mid-table.

The first half looked like ending goalless until the referee awarded the visitors a harsh penalty. Ettingshall gratefully slammed home the spot-kick for an interval lead.

Town pushed forward after the break but, apart from one Danny Hill effort, which went close, they appeared to be fighting a losing battle as the game entered the last minute with the visitors defending their lead vigorously.

Then Roy Jordan made a break down the left and crossed to the far post where Jackson headed home a welcome equaliser.

Kington Town 0 Westfields 0

Both defences were in top form as the local rivals fought out an earlier mid-week draw.

Despite the match being an end-to-end encounter, genuine goal scoring chances were at a premium as both sides worked tirelessly to protect a point.

Although Westfields enjoyed the better of the first period, they were only able to breach the outfield defence once and then Carl Rose produced a superb save to deny Mark Hibbard.

Both teams created half chances in the second half but, when Kington threatened to steal the points with a Kevin Gwillim shot, Jon Pugh produced a spectacular, acrobatic save to deny them.
