Hollington's Halloween nightmare: Delivery was 'nothing short of atrocious'

Hollington United had an All Hallows’ eve nightmare as they went down to a hugely frustrating 1-0 loss away at Cuckfield Rangers.

Dominating for almost the entirety of the match the Lions somehow contrived to drop points in what was a pivotal game of the season. Dan Tewkesbury had a goal bound effort cleared off the line and shortly after hit the underside of the crossbar when one on one with the goalkeeper during an impressive opening 45 minutes.

Cuckfield however delivered a sucker punch on the stroke of half-time with what would prove to be their only shot on target. Poor marking from a set piece allowed the Cuckfield number 8 to plant his free header past the frustrated Luke Caister in goal.
