York Hearts FC kicked off the new season on Tuesday night with a solid 1-1 draw against NPower in The York Tuesday 6 a Side Football League. Following a respectable mid table finish in the Championship last season, YHFC were looking to get off to a flying start and looked like doing so until floored by a last minute equaliser.
Despite losing several players through hospitalisation, injury and work commitments, a squad of 8 on Tuesday night consisting of; Tommy O, Stampie, Calum, Ninja, Gandhi, Sammy O, McScarfless and Barclay put in an extremely solid performance with some fluent passing and fine attempts on goal.
Playing against a team who finished with 4 pts less last season, YHFC looked to have the full 3 pts in the bag after Sammy O opened the scoring midway through the first half with a measured finish following some neat build up play. With typical hard work and solid defending a winning start to the season was on the cards until NPower hit back with 1 minute of play remaining.
Although disappointed to drop a couple of points the coaching duo of Badger and Ibby were delighted by the performance. "Every single player put in a lot of hard work and effort tonight and there were more positives than negatives to be had. We can look forward with some confidence to the remainder of the season with commitment like that" reflected coach Ibby.
Man Of The Match went to Stampie who showed admirable leadership qualities on the field and turned in an outstanding performance all round.
