Match Report
The Poppies fought out a very spirited Newlands Shield Trophy game at Steel Park on Saturday. Both sides included a number of trialists, with the Poppies making 9 changes in the second half. Kettering went ahead when the trialist wearing the no11 shirt was brought down in the penalty area by Corby goalkeeper Nemanja Grubor. The trialist scored from the spot to put Paul Cox's side 1-0 ahead.
Both sides had chances in the second half, before a slight defensive lapse by the Poppies allowed Connor Furey to equalise at the back post from close range. Kettering had a goal disallowed for off-side (scored by trialist no9) and Callum Powell hit the bar from a thunderous long range free kick.
All in all 1-1 was a fair result, with both sides working hard in front of 517 at Steel Park.
Kettering play away at Coalville Town on Tuesday night - Poppies TV audio will be broadcasting the game.
