ARCHDALES '73 recorded another impressive result, defeating county rivals Littleton 3-2 in Midland Combination Division One on Saturday.

Both sides started strongly with chances at both ends but the first-half ended goalless.

Littleton came out firing after the interval and Joe Wright scored after five minutes from a great move involving five players.

Three minutes later, they made it 2-0 when Matt Staley slotted home after tearing the Dales defence apart.

The visitors were playing well and looked winners until Jason Beck and Darren Tafft were introduced.

Dales pulled one back when Steve Hazelden slotted home from a Sam Green cross.

Minutes later, Beck headed home the leveller from a Gordy Beauchamp corner.

Beck scored the winner 10 minutes from time when he volleyed home another cross from Beauchamp to give Archdales an unlikely victory and keep their unbeaten run going.
