Jambos Downhearted

York Hearts remain rooted to the bottom of the Football Mundial Championship, following a 1-0 defeat by Lifetime Rovers at Huntington on Tuesday.
The Jambos succumbed to a break away goal with just four minutes left, leaving them still chasing their first win of the season.
It was a worryingly familiar story for the maroons who, while conceding just nine goals in nine games, have scored a paltry two.
Sam Outing had Hearts' best chance of the game, but fired wide. Then in the last move of the game, Aitchison failed to connect with an Outing cutback.
By then though, the damage had been done. After clipping the bar with a speculative shot in the first half, Rovers seized their chance late on, breaking through the Hearts backline and firing past Rich in goals.
The squad was: Johnston, Aitchison, Beattie, Catanach, S. Outing, Ong, Burnett.
Burnett was named Hearts man of the match.

The Thursday team, which is currently 6th in their 8-team league, take on title-chasing Stillington tonight, looking to avenge 16-2 and 9-6 defeats earlier in the season. All spectators welcome.
