Sporting JLGB manager Gavin Sharpe praised his squad after clinching their first-ever piece of silverware with a thumping 5-1 win over Crumpsall in the Tony Cohen Memorial final.
Goals either side of half time from Jonny Davies and Danny Jacobs put JLGB in a strong position at Salford City FC. A superb strike from Michael Freedman gave Crumpsall hope but the two-goal advantage was soon restored when Alex Woolf set up Davies.
Sporting controlled the closing stages with Rafi Bloom on target twice to seal the win. Manager Gavin Sharpe said: "We thoroughly deserved to win. It's been a long time coming. Next year we will go after the title."
Crumpsall manager Zevi Saunders said: "We didn't do enough to win the game. We had a few chances but couldn't take them. Sporting were clinical."
