MAN-OF-THE-MATCH Corey Littlefield’s thumping volley earned Thorpe United under 16s a 1-1 draw with Garforth Villa.

Littlefield fired United into a half-time lead from Jordan Emery’s pass after an overlapping James Arnold had received the ball back off Ben Clowes from his throw-in and crossed into the box.

But Villa, with the wind at their backs, drew level after the break when Thorpe keeper Alex Ward was given no chance from a headed effort after a well-struck free kick.
