Match Report: The first period was fairly even and Repton had to work hard to gain the upper hand. Eventually, Twidle found a way through to open the scoring but Worksop refused to lie down and continued to cause problems on the break. Swann did an excellent job of protecting Dancey, whose goalkeeping kit, held together by bandages, lent a comic feel to the proceedings. Twidle took on the entire Worksop side, showing fine pace and control before scoring from a tight angle for the second and Cosford's sharp turn and finish brought a third before half-time. The second period saw Worksop rally but fail to cause a threat in front of goal and Repton were able to gain full control thanks to some fine goals: Cosford's second after excellent work by Fung looked like being the pick until Willcox lashed in a fine effort on the reverse, prompting resigned but admiring comments from the home players. Repton's fine season continues and we now move on to Oakham on Thursday en route to Milton Keynes for the ISFA final.
