Halton Rangers Results - 21-02-2009
Highgrove the third team in with a chance of claiming the title faced a hard battle against an improving Halton Rangers side
The first half was quite even with both sides creating chances, Tom Lund scored for Halton and Dan Broadley equalising for Highgrove.
The second half was more frenetic as both sides committed themselves to all out attack, slightly against the run of play Highgrove went into a 2-1 when Luke Ogley scored.
Halton never gave up and in Jonathan Pink they had the man of the match as Highgrove could not contain him, he had already set up Lund for his goal. With the introduction of Simon Harrison , Halton looked more dangerous and it was Pink who played a marvellous pass to Harrison who took his chance well to earn a well deserved draw for his side.
Halton beat Burton Thistle
Richard McDonnell scored the only goal of a tight game played by two good teams.
Burton beat Halton 4-0 earlier in the season and was up for it again. This time Halton played better but it took a touch of magic by McDonnell to secure all three points for his side.
The run in for the top seven in the division is going to be important as all seven have a chance of promotion.
