Heighington faced Eaglescliffe Elementis FC in a cup match thi week. . After a very slow start to the game and going 1 down panic set in. Then they pulled themselves up and started talking to each other and got the equaliser through Lewis Sangster. All of a sudden everyone was winning their battles and Lewis helped himself to a further 3 goals (4 goals in total) and Joe Fraser adding another. Running out 5-1 winners. Fantastic match and great start to the season 2 wins out of 3 matches. Another win next Sunday.
