Twelve Moments of Christmas: Number Five
Number five in our ‘Twelve Moments of Christmas’ also takes us back to Bromsgrove Sporting’s Victoria Ground.
This time, we go back to last season’s visit in March, and after a dramatic ten minutes, in which the score had advanced from 0-1 to 2-2, the spoils look set to be shared with just three minutes remaining.
Step up Dominic Smith. The big centre half, who has already featured in this list at number nine, reacted quickest to Ross Clarke’s free kick, prodding it home to net the winner and send the large travelling contingent into jubilation.
That extended Hinckley’s unbeaten run to 24 matches, and helped them overturn their fellow high flyers in a result that was crucial in securing FA Cup qualification.
