Corby Win Play-Off Final
Corby Town became overall winners of the....
Zoom
....Northants Senior Youth League by beating Cogenhoe United after extra-time in the Championship play-off final at Hayden Road.
The match between East Division winners Corby and West Division champions Cogenhoe was a hard-fought contest.
Corby had the best spells of the first half, going close through a 25-yard effort from Fraser Glover which rebounded off of the bar.
However, it was the Cooks who took the lead just after half-time when Corby conceded a penalty that Korey Morgan slotted home.
Glover was again unfortunate to see another fine effort come back off of the woodwork before Leon Trimble levelled with just 10 minutes remaining following a goalmouth scramble.
Extra-time saw the Steelmen generally on top, so it came as little surprise when Lewis Addy grabbed what proved to be the winner when he burst through several tackles before firing a low shot past Cogenhoe keeper Sam Ward.
Another Corby side, S&L, won through to the Jaymann Shield final after edging out Whitworth 2-1 at Occupation Road.
A close-fought encounter saw the home side take the lead through a well-taken goal from Sam Rogers before the Flourboys levelled through Alexis Alcindor.
Excellent link-up play between Ryan Gormley and Macauley McBride saw the latter restore S&L`s lead.
Whitworth keeper Olly Stock made two superb saves from John Dean near the end to keep the scoreline at 2-1.
The final between either Eynesbury Rovers or Woodford United is likely to be held over until pre-season.
