Isthmian Division North
Grays Athletic 1 v 0 Maldon and Tiptree
SUBSTITUTE Matas Skarna had a dramatic impact on Saturday (2 November) Isthmian North clash against Maldon & Tiptree at Chadfields, getting booked just two minutes after coming on in the 50th minute and then firing home a spectacular match winner five minutes later.
Both sides had suffered Velocity Cup defeats against higher-placed sides in midweek, though in differing fashion.
Grays were thumped 6-1 by Hashtag United, but it took a penalty shoot-out for Hornchurch to beat the Jammers
There was far less drama in today’s match – until Skarna’s effort when he replaced Alex Moss.
The win lifts Grays to eighth.
They return to league action on Saturday at home to Newmarket Town.
