Maccabi Masters review: October 30

articlemain

A late strike from Danny Schindler earned Maccabi London Lions B a crucial victory over Division Two leaders St. John's Wood Tigers in the Maccabi Masters Football League.

The top two seemed to be heading for a goalless draw until Schindler converted Arthur Duke’s pinpoint cross with just five minutes remaining, leaving Tigers’ manager John Perloff feeling ‘devastated’.

Marshside came from behind to beat Glenthorne 3-2 with goals from Martin Leslie, Sacha Alter and a late volley from Fara Moghim.

Temple Fortune recovered from 2-0 down to beat Hendon Harriers 6-4 with goals from Robert Botkai (2), Joel Davis, Jeremy Fess, Leon Wise and Graham Mayer.

A goal just before half-time put Fortune back into the match, followed by another two in the second period to turn the game around.

Hendon equalised at 3-3 before Fortune restored the advantage by one goal. Back came the Harriers to make the score 4–4. However, two further goals from the Old Boys settled the match. Fortune's goal-scorers were Botkai (2), Meyer, Wise, Davis and Fess, whose goal came direct from a corner.

Fortune manager David Goldberg said: "We scored some great goals including a worldie from Joel. But the defending at times was abysmal including a great own goal by Phil Bloomberg!"
