Swifts Sundays lift Bert Yabsley Trophy

Swifts Sunday side made it a treble of Cups for the club on Thursday, beating Sawbridgeworth Town 2-1 at Bishop's Stortford, following last weeks U-18 League Cup win & the 1st teams Herts Senior Centenary Trophy win. The first half saw Swifts struggle to get going against a very lively Sawbo side, whose pressing and work rate caused Swifts to give the ball away far too often. Midway through the half Sawbridgeworth took the lead with an unstoppable volley by Richardson, direct from a corner. Sawbridgeworth continued to be the better side up to the break. The second half saw Swifts finally get the ball down and wide men Evans and Crane started to cause the Sawbo defence problems. On 65 minutes Crane cut inside and his shot from 20 yds found the left hand corner of the Sawbo net. Swifts were now in the ascendancy and 10 minutes from time Billy Turner cut in from the right and fired home the winner from 22yds, to give Swifts the trophy for the 3rd year running.
