York City 0-2 Boston United

The Pilgrims were full value for their 2-0 win over York City at the LNER Community Stadium – with strikes from Hazel after 69 minutes and Ward after 87 minutes silencing the large home crowd.

Cameron Gregory had saved well early on to ทางเข้า ufabet deny Ollie Pearce and Ricky Aguiar – but thereafter United created the lion’s share of chances, with home keeper Harrison Male twice denying Hazel before his opening goal.

United again made four changes to the starting XI – with Zak Mills, Cameron Green, Martin Woods and Tony Weston all included from the off.

Gregory had to save brilliantly in the second minute to keep out Pearce’s close-range drive, before using his legs to repel a later effort from Aguiar.

Hazel broke the deadlock midway through the second half and substitute Ward added the Pilgrims’ second in the 87th minute.

York, who slipped to their first league defeat of the season, went close before the break when Ricky Aguiar’s shot from Cameron John’s cutback was well saved by Boston goalkeeper Cameron Gregory.

Home goalkeeper Harrison Male denied Hazel with a fine save in the 67th minute, but the Boston striker tapped home at the far post from Jordan Richards’ excellent cross two minutes later.

Ward wrapped up the points for the Pilgrims in the closing stages when he ran on to Pemi Aderoju’s through-ball and fired into the bottom corner.
