Beverley Town secured a 2-0 victory over Stocksbridge Park Steels in a closely contested match on Saturday. The game, played at Beverley’s home ground, remained goalless through a competitive first half before the hosts took control after the interval.

Stocksbridge had some early opportunities to take the lead, with forward Josiah Dyer forcing Beverley’s goalkeeper Leigh Overton into a notable save late in the first half. Dyer also missed a close-range chance after a well-delivered corner, leaving the scoreline level at halftime.

The momentum shifted in Beverley’s favour after the break when a free-kick was capitalized on by Macaulay Snelgrove. His shot deflected off two players before finding the net, giving the home side a crucial advantage. Shortly afterward, Tomas Poole’s effort appeared destined to double the lead but was cleared off the line by the visiting defence.

Beverley put the result beyond doubt late in the match when Callum Connelly broke away on a through ball, evading a Stocksbridge offside appeal before slotting the ball past goalkeeper Ben Townsend. The goal sealed a win that lifts Beverley Town to a higher position in the standings, while Stocksbridge Park Steels will look to regroup following the defeat.
