Pin Point Recruitment Amateur Cup Final (At Swalwell FC, Derwenthaugh)

Whickham Lang Jacks 2 Willington Quay Saints 1

Lang Jacks keeper Mark Innes pulled off a string of stunning saves in a man of the match performance as they lifted the Amateur Cup at the third attempt.

The first effort to play the game fell foul of the weather and the second was abandoned due to a serious injury to a Saints player.

Willington Quay made a great start and Kane Chirnside fired them ahead in the ninth minute on a bumpy pitch at Swalwell.

Innes made a couple of superb stops to keep Lang Jacks in it, and they levelled in the 40th minute as Joe Bell struck.

Just four minutes later Jacks were in dreamland as Paul Silcock netted the second.

Saints had a great chance to level when they were awarded a spot-kick with ten minutes to play, but Innes guessed correctly and pulled off another top draw save to give his side the silverware.
