On 24 minutes Midfield maestro Cody Walker played in pacey winger Callum Worthington in to slot his half volley in to the top left of the Bartestree goal leaving their keeper in no mans land. On the stroke of half time the stand in Referee pointed to the spot for a Bartestree penalty which was cooly slotted to the keepers left.
