LIVERPOOL

Burton, Walker (2)

 
A brace from leading scorer Leon Walker helped West Riding to a hard-fought, and much-needed, win against a battling Liverpool team who were looking for their first points of the season after defeats against North Riding and Cheshire .
 
The visitors had most of the early play attacking the goal at the clubhouse end but their neat approaches were not matched by their ability to finish and slowly the home side came more into the game resulting in Walker’s first goal after 18 minutes when he finished off a good move with a clinical shot into the roof of the net.
 
Liverpool were undaunted by this reverse and deservedly equalized after 43 minutes through a goal from James Robinson who coolly shot past West Riding goalkeeper Ben Hazlett as he came out to narrow the angle.
 
The second half continued in the same vein until the last quarter when the visitors seemed to tire as West Riding piled on the pressure which resulted in a goal from Ben Burnett followed by Walker ’s second, both coming in the last seven minutes of the game.
 
The win set up the home squad for their next game which is a visit to Leicestershire & Rutland on the 13th December in the 3rd Round of the FA County Youth Cup.

NORTHUMBERLAND

Turnbull, Dutson, Walker (3)

 
A goal after 2 minutes from Lee Turnbull gave West Riding the perfect start and they added to their total when Leon Walker got the first of his hat-trick with a fine shot into to far corner. 
 
Although Northumberland had plenty of possession they were unable to trouble Liam Burton in the home goal and it was Walker who pounced again shortly after the break with his second. 
 
The tie looked beyond the visitors now and Walker completed his threesome with a smart shot after the ball came out to him from a goalmouth scramble.
 
There was still time for the home side to go nap as Adam Dutson took advantage of the strong wind to score from 40 yards from a free kick in the dying minutes.
 
West Riding will now travel to the winners of the Lincolnshire v Leicestershire tie with the game having to be played by the 21st December.
