Lewis evens it up

‘In the opening 5 minutes Sutton came out strong scoring 2 tries, courtesy of James Mann and Oliver Chudleigh, and having most of the ball in Derbys half. Unfortunately Sutton sat back on their defence and with a few missed tackles Derby came back to score 3 unanswered tries. Sutton came back on attack with James Fisher breaking free and looked free to score when he made a selfless pass Ben Stewart who carried it over the line for the try. Derby managed to cross the try line again just before half time.

Half time Derby 4 Sutton 3

The second half saw Derby intercept some sloppy passes from Sutton and again score 3 consecutive tries. Sutton dug deep and fought back with a try from Keaton Payne. Sutton began to put pressure on Derby’s defence and with a charge down, resulting in a try, from Hayden Mousley, Sutton seemed ready for a fight back. Derby intercepted another Sutton pass which allowed them to run, almost the full length of the pitch, to score the try. Ashley Dukes made some good ground to put further pressure on Derby and scored a try with 3 minutes remaining. With 3 minutes left of the game Sutton appeared to regain their structure, made some good decisions and passes which allowed Keaton Payne and Lewis Pratt to cross the line. On the full time whistle the score was tied 8 - 8.
