MIXED FORTUNES
 
There were mixed fortunes for our 2 teams who took part in Round 2 of the County Cup competitions. The Under 14's playing at home to Gomersal & Cleckheaton found themselves 3-0 down at half time, but a tremendous 2nd half fightback made it 3-3 before their opponents scored 2 late goals to run out 5-3 winners. The Under 12's who were away to Batley Phoenix were once again involved in a penalty shootout to decide the result. Anthony Mbubue put Bingley ahead early in the game but Batley were the better team in the first half and deserved to be level at half time. The 2nd half was evenly contested with both sides scoring a 2nd goal. Bingley's came via the penalty spot from Jason Mitchell. Twenty minutes of extra time couldn't separate the sides so the game went to penalties. Matthew Brian, Jamal Raja & Ethan Brodigan were all successful from the spot. Alex Haluszcak in goal for Bingley made 3 tremendous saves to see us through by 3 penalties to 2. So we move onto the 3rd Round.
