Chester-le-Street Whitehill and Spennymoor Black and Decker.

As it has done for the past 11 years, the match kicked off at 11am at Sacriston Welfare Ground on May Bank Holiday Monday.

Spennymoor Black and Decker took control with an early attempt at a goal but the first half proved to be slow with a few good attempts at goal by both teams.

Overall, Whitehill held possession and proved to be the stronger team as they dominated the first half which ended goalless and proved to be a disappointment to both the players and spectators.

As the second half kicked off people could see the determination in both teams' faces for the cup.

The second half proved to be more exciting as dirty tackles came more into play by both teams and referee Michael Adamson has to warn players before a yellow card was awarded to Whitehill's Ross Robson after a collision with Black and Decker's goalkeeper.

The game's only goal came in the 89th minute courtesy of a Whitehill penalty which provoked arguments and complaints.

Cup secretary Ken Simmons said: "The match was well controlled by the referee and at the end of the day it is his final decision that counts."

Overall, it was a good day had by all with a good turn out to support the local teams.

Presentations were made afterwards in the Sacriston Working Mans Club.
