NORTH picked up three vital points on a heavy Northfield pitch on Saturday, much to the relief of their coach, Mick Le Prevost.
Having lost 2-1 at St Martin’s last time out only a win would do, and they got it.
‘I was pleased with the way we played, especially after the last game,’ said Le Prevost.
‘We thoroughly deserve to win the game. We created a lot of chances and there were some good performances on a heavy pitch.
‘Every game is a cup final now. They were clearly up for it, which I wanted to see.’
With a pitch that resembled a giant tub of play dough, especially around the centre circle, the match was never going to be for the purist.
