The match was always going to be difficult with the wind blowing a gale form one end of a pitch to the other.
The Barons were playing into the wind in the first half. Despite the wind the Barons had the first chance of the game. Teal Amos narrowly putting the ball wide. The Barons defended well with Sam McGlashan & Harry Browne Sainty being able to put important tackles in. However Pendle Forest were able to brake the dead lock with a good break and the move was finished off with a good shot. With not much time left in the first half the Barons were able to apply some pressure with Teal Amos breaking well. The move looked over after a good tackle, however Liam Green was able to finish well from a very tight angle to level the scores.
The second half was always going to be different with the wind behind the Barons. The Barons were able to start passing and make some strong runs but James Snelson made some important tackles to deny the Barons. However Teal Amos was able to put the Barons into the lead with a well taken goal.
The third was unlucky for Pendle Forest, an excellent corner from Archie Paxton was flicked on at the near post by a Forest defender and ended up in the back of the net.
The fourth was again made from a break from Teal Amos with the goal keeper making a brave save at Teal's feet. However the ball broke to Barons man of the match Joseph Darcy for him to calmly slot the ball in the back of the net.
The Barons earned their win with a gritty first half performance which set up the game to be won in the second half.
