Long Eaton U12s 100% winning start to the season came to an end on Sunday when they were held to a 1-1 draw by Arnold.
Long Eaton kicked off and started well producing some good passing football but Arnold were a well organised side and coped well with the Long Eaton attacks and created some good football themselves and deservedly took the lead on 15 mins when Sleigh prodded the ball home from a corner. Both sides cancelled each other out and shots on goal were minimal with Long Eatons make-shift defence of Olly, Joe & Man of the Match Kyle outstanding.
Long Eaton levelled things up 5 mins before half time when the Arnold keeper could only parry a shot from Jason straight to Charlie who made no mistake from 6 yards.
HALF TIME: Long Eaton Utd 1-1 Arnold Town.
The second half was a carbon copy of the first with both sides playing good football but cancelling each other out. It wasn't untill with 5 mins remaining the game burst into life with L.Es Alex hitting the Arnold crossbar and L.Es keeper Arron producing a great save in the final minute to keep the scores level. It was a fair result from 2 well organised teams.
FINAL SCORE: Long Eato Utd 1-1 Arnold Town.
