Nimi Schwarzmann saluted his players after Maccabi London Lions under-15’s secured the Watford Friendly League title following a hard-fought draw against Sun Sports.

Having secured promotion the previous weekend, the Lions were looking to turn on the style but they were met by stubborn resistance in a tight and tense first half.

There were very few clear-cut chances and honours were even at the break. With very little between the team, Lions started to play some good football but knew they had to be at their best to keep an attacking Sun Sports at bay.

Early in the second half, Jake Aspis latched on to a poor clearance from a corner from just outside the penalty box to put Maccabi Lions ahead.
