The first match in Saturday’s double-header, after an intense battle, ended in a 1-all draw between Ann’s Grove United and Den Amstel FC.
Ann’s Grove United (blue) and Den Amstel had to settle for a draw

Thereafter, the teams fought tooth and nail for the game winner, which evaded bath sides, who had to settle for one point each added to their tallies.
