Well, it’s the big one, the one we’ve all been waiting for, the match against Hednesford. With the away team leading 1-0 from the first leg it was set to be a tense evening at Marston road.

1st Half
Rangers started the better side and Hednesford’s defence really struggled with Rangers attacking play and in the 9th minute Rangers were awarded a free kick with Joe cuff stepping up to dispatch the ball hard & low down to the keepers right. After the goal went in the game continued to be dominated by Rangers with the Hednesford keeper making some great saves to keep the score at 1-0. However in the 34th minute Jon Moran got on the score sheet to make it 2-0 to Rangers, a great finish from the lad.

2nd Half
It was Hednesford who started the second with a bang following a goal from their number 9 Reece Styche in the 46th minute to make it 2-1. Hednesford had a lot more of the ball in the second half and made it very difficult for Rangers to get the ball. The performance levels from Rangers seemed to drop for 10-20 minutes of the second half. During the latter stages of second half the game was stretched which allowed Rangers to get on the ball more and create chances. In the 80th minute Rangers sub Thomas Carr made it 3-1 following a header from close range.

3-1 was how it finished. A great win for Rangers – a fantastic performance – well done boys!
