Northern Premier League Presidents Cup Second Round

Bamber Bridge are starting to make a regular thing of these narrow 4-3 away wins.

Again, Brig looked to be strolling to victory after Adam Tong made it 2-1 in the 70th minute, but they were hit with another sucker punch when Kris Atkinson equalised in the 90th minute to send the game into extra time.

However, normal order looked to be restored when winger Mike Mason and midfielder Glen Steel scored two goals to make it 4-2.

Despite Rossendale pulling one goal back after 112 minutes of the game through Andy Watson, Brig held on to earn a place in the third round against Trafford.

It could have been so different as Rossendale opened the scoring after a scrappy piece of play Jermaine Steel followed up his own shot which had hit the post on 39 minutes.

Brig drew level on the verge of half-time when Alex Porter crossed the ball back from the bye-line and striker Anthony Murt rifled home from six yards out.

Both sides exchanged opportunities before substitute Tong hit a well-struck shot flew into the far corner of the net in the 70th minutes.


  • Bamber Bridge: Andy Banks, Jamie Nay, Stuart Howson, Dave McCann, Krystian Liptrot(Adam Tong 50), Mark Edmeads, Tom Merella (Shayne Oldfield 65), Ryan Zico-Black (Glenn Steel 41), Anthony Murt, Alex Porter, Mike Mason
