A dramatic late strike from Isaac Moore rescued a point for ten-man Solihull Moors after Conor Wilkinson’s brace was overturned by a Whitehall hat-trick.




The Moors had the ball in the back of the net inside the opening ten minutes, but a tight offside call denied them the lead. That changed five minutes later as Solihull’s midfield did brilliantly to win possession and release Darius Lipsiuc down the left. His initial effort was tame, but it fell perfectly for Conor Wilkinson, who produced an exceptional first touch to glide past his defender before calmly slotting beyond the Irons goalkeeper.


A dry, stop-start half-hour followed with few clear chances. The hosts began to edge the momentum, earning multiple set pieces, though none truly tested the Moors backline. Just before the break, Wilkinson struck again in sensational fashion, driving from the halfway line past four defenders before unleashing a powerful effort from outside the box that flew beyond Jones to double Solihull’s advantage.


Scunthorpe came out firing after the restart and pulled one back within five minutes. A corner drifted to the back post where Boyce headed goalwards, and Whitehall was on hand to steer it over the line. Further controversy followed as Tyler French was shown a red card after an off-the-ball altercation with Whitehall. The hosts nearly levelled soon after when a chaotic scramble in the Moors box gifted Whitehall a free header from five yards, but he somehow steered wide.


The equaliser did arrive when Roberts beat Cameron Green on the right before drilling a cross into the box for Whitehall to tap home. The striker completed his hat-trick in the 85th minute, as Roberts once again found space down the flank and delivered for Whitehall to finish from close range, turning the game on its head at 3–2.


Deep into stoppage time, the Moors showed real determination. Darius Lipsiuc won a crucial corner, and when the delivery dropped kindly inside the area, Isaac Moore smashed home through a crowd of bodies to salvage a dramatic point for Solihull.

Moors fall short as Tamworth capitalise on defensive errors. Solihull Moors were unable to build on recent momentum as Tamworth claimed victory, punishing key mistakes in a game short on quality but decided by fine margins. Despite a bright moment from Ben Worman early on, the Moors struggled to create clear chances and were made to pay in the second half. The Moors’ best opportunity of the first half came in the 13th minute when Ben Worman found space on the edge of the box and curled an effort towards the top right-hand corner. It looked destined for the net, but an outstanding defensive header from Rye diverted the ball onto the crossbar. Tamworth largely had the upper hand in the opening period, although neither goalkeeper was truly tested. The game lacked quality in the final third for both sides, with frequent fouls disrupting any rhythm and preventing either team from building sustained attacks. The hosts came close to taking the lead nine minutes into the second half following a Solihull corner. Singh gathered the ball and quickly bowled it out to Lynch, who released Acquaye through on goal, but Laurie Walker reacted well to rush out and meet the striker at his feet. However, from the resulting goal kick, Solihull’s defence faltered. A slip just eight yards out allowed Mols to pounce and deliver a cross to Dan Creaney, who guided his header across goal, off the post and into the net. Despite making several attacking changes, the Moors struggled to pose any real threat, with the final ball consistently failing to find a yellow shirt. Tamworth managed the game effectively in the closing stages and nearly added a second in stoppage time when another defensive error allowed Creaney through, but Walker was equal to his effort on that occasion.
