THE STRATTON U12s finished runners-up in the annual tournament organised so well at Fairford.

They suffered their only defeat at the hands of a visiting team from Belgium.

The Stratton U14s were also represented and had a good day with a third-placed finish.

Stratton Youth U12s 1 Malmesbury Youth U12s 0

WITH five minutes remaining Stratton's Harry Dyer headed home a Charlie Love corner for the winner in a game which Malmesbury U12s had more than played their part.

The visitors quickly took the upper hand and hit the woodwork twice, while George Tanner in the Stratton goal earned his MoM award with two full length saves.

Stratton had chances on the counter in the second half but couldn't find the net until their late winner.

There was still time for Tanner to tip a late shot on to the bar to earn the points for Stratton.
