Darlington Under 9s played Marton on Sunday.

Number one Zach Judson started in goal with Issac Marr and Jack Thompson in defence. Jack Shaw, Charlie Cole and Ben Snowden played across the middle with Oliver English up top.

For a second week running the partnership of Issac Marr and Jack Thompson proved to be strong, with not much getting by them.

Going forward Darlington were strong again, Jack Shaw and Charlie Cole causing problems down each wing, providing numerous assist throughout the game,

Oliver English was impressive on his second appearances for the club, scoring a fantastic hat trick. A well taken penalty and two instinctive goals topped off a brilliant day for the number 9.

Harry Gunnal added another two goals to his tally, scoring within seconds of coming on.

Man of the match went to Oliver English for his well taken hattrick.

We go again next week, back in the league at home.
