Another Luke Allardice long-range free-kick and a strike from Oscar Troop weren't enough for the Heslerton Under-14 Hedgehogs against a very strong and impressive Seamer team.

Troop got the Parents’ Players of the match award with defender Kian Sefton getting the manager’s award.

The home side took an early two-goal lead before Harry Thompson capitalised on a mistake at the back to pull a goal back all within the first 10 minutes.

Stamford scored again to go into the break 3-1 up.

The second half saw Heslerton dig deep and ride a barrage of Stamford attacks with the home side only adding one more before the final whistle.

Josh Hanagan was given the man of the match award for a tremendous effort leading the line in the first half and at full-back in the second half.
