Ash Stokes and Richard Winton (M) - tormented Redbridge throughout

NORTH LONDON RAIDERS A

Matt Stock (S) – three very well-taken goals, including the fasted Raiders have scored this season, within 15 seconds of kick-off

----------------

MILL HILL DONS

Jason Weldon (LM) - what a performance from the winger today, he scored four goals as he looked extremely calm in front of goal. He was making dangerous runs the whole entire game and the Raiders defence struggled to pick him up

Nick Phillips (CM) - a beautiful calm header by Phillips helped the Dons get back to level terms in the first half, he once again pulled the strings in midfield with some beautiful passing

Ryan Kramer (CM) - three assists to his name and a fantastic all-round performance. He won many crucial challenges and cut the defence open several times with some delightful balls

Joseph Reece (RB) - the right-back didn't put a foot wrong in this game, he intercepted everything that came his way and made some great balls down the wing that caused the Raiders some problems

----------------

OAKWOOD A

Leor Sidle (S) - was simply unplayable. Never stopped running for the second week running and his persistence and pressure paid off in stoppage-time when he caused panic in the Hendon backline

Harvey Kaye & Lee Warner (FBs) - dominant against some excellent Hendon wide players

Thomas Prais (M) - stopped ari last from playing and totally dominated in midfield.

Dave Woolman (LM) - tireless running, brilliant delivery and incredible work rate. Never gave hendon a moment's rest

----------------

SCRABBLE FC

Sam Stead (RB) - strong tackling defender who moved into midfield in the closing stages of the game and powered through to make it 5-0

Brandon Sassoon (CB) - a real captain's performance at the heart of the Scrabble defence whose powerful headed clearances and distribution was of top-class quality.Also scored the opener with a superb headed finish

Adam Waters (LB) - playing out of position but in top form defending well and raiding down the wing.Later used in central midfield and scored Scrabble's second goal to settle the nerves

Zac Summerfield (LM) - Scrabble's young rising star looked years ahead of his time.A superb football brain and some mesmerising runs teased the Hendon defenders 

who simply couldn't hold him

Dan Green (M) - battled for 90 minutes in the heart of the Scrabble midfield as the ball winner and left nothing on the pitch

Elliot Espinoza (CM) - the Scrabble playmaker set up some great chances and was always in the heart of the action setting up the plays with some great through balls

REFEREE - Keith Goodman - a superb performance decisions spot on and controlled the game so well. Held full respect from all the players for the whole 90 minutes to contribute to a well fought battle but friendly game from both sides

----------------

REDBRIDGE JEWISH CARE A

Sam Sollosi (M) – back to his best form , marauding , slalom like running and when he concentrates just on his own game , he is in a league of his own

Ben Sollosi (M)  - any thoughts that his new baby, Rocco had calmed him down were put to one side with two crunching tackles and total commitment from him

Sam McCarthy (HM) - keeping it simple as a holding midfield player sounds simple enough but he just kept Redbridge ticking over and the ball moving

Zack Neiman (D) - has been outstanding all season, new partner in Daryl Rubin but just looks so comfortable

Daryl Rubin (D) - brilliant, composed, a goal threat at set-pieces, a Rolls Royce of a defender

Dean Nyman (S) - a menace to the whole backline, he was so deserving of his first hat-trick for many years. He rolled back the years and there was a collective sigh of relief from the Camden defenders and keeper when he went off with job done after 70 minutes. A man-of-the-match performance

----------------

FINCHLEY CITY

Gav Kreiger (D) - superb defensive performance against Raiders

Eli Davila (DM) - bestdisplay of the season. Always our unsung hero

----------------

LOS BLANCOS

Josh Cramer (LB) - faultless filling in at left-back. Just like the legend that is Matthieu Flamini, the feisty midfielder played his makeshift role to perfection.
