OLD SHILDON just edged a close game with Hunwick Joiners thanks to a second half strike by Anthony Brown.
The heroics of Hunwick’s goalkeeper kept the home side in it until Brown’s goal 20 minutes from full-time bagged all three points and Shildon’s tenth league win of the season.
Midfielder Martin Hedley said: “It was a very close game. Their goalkeeper had an excellent game with a man-of-the-match performance. But credit to Hunwick, they battled well right to the end and the scoreline showed just how close it was. They attacked well and always looked dangerous on the break, without really creating any clear-cut chances, but it was a good result for us.”
