Westover Wasps battle back to win 2-1 at Driffield Town
The Wasps started the game slowly allowing Driffield to get a hold of the game and take the lead.
Westover moved the ball round well but created few chances and it was the home side who looked to try to double their lead, but good defending from new signing Sam Foy and James Day kept Town out.
After a few stern half-time words from boss Phil Wallace, Wasps raised their game, and it wasn’t long before the visitors got their deserved equaliser from the spot by Will Stokoe, who had been replaced as stand-in keeper by another stand-in gloveman Chris Mattinson.
This brought belief into Westover, Josh Berry and Jason Prosser were now controlling the game in midfield, moving the ball around with confidence.
And it was Berry who created space in midfield and saw the home keeper off his line, and lobbed him from about 40 yards out, giving the Wasps a well-deserved lead.
Westover had more chances, the hard-working Si Coupland and Nicko Dunn both going close.
With 15 minutes to go Ollie Parker was sent off for a second yellow card.
This gave back momentum to the hosts, but once again Westover stood firm and cancelled out everything Driff threw at them.
