Jason Stein praised the mercurial Jacob Richler Kleiman who fired a deadly hat-trick to put Oakwood B into the hat for round three of the Cyril Anekstein Cup following a five-goal thriller against Maccabi London Lions B.

Having just been named JC Player of the Month, the former Manchester Maccabi marksman helped the Oaks come from a goal down to win 3-2 in a game where Eli Cohen and Daniel Fattal registered for the Lions.

Stein told JC Sport: "We're over the moon to be through to the next round and to see out the high holidays without defeat for another year.

"Today was a terrific cup game and Lions played their part. As usual, we fell 1-0 behind but then hit back to lead 3-1 thanks to JRK notching his 9th, 10th and 11th goals of the season.
