Akeel’s brace secures the points for Sleaford
Akeel Francis was the Greens’ hero, grabbing himself a well-taken brace as the hosts comfortably saw off their lowly Nottinghamshire opponents to move up into seventh in UCL Premier North and within eight points of the play-off positions.
Sleaford took the lead when Tom Waumsley knocked on Ryan Flitton’s throw into the path of Ryan Lennon before he subsequently crossed for Francis to blast home.
