A sparkling performance from Rosso’s second-half substitutes turned one point into three this Bonfire weekend as Main recorded an impressive 4-2 victory at struggling Worsbrough Bridge.

Rosso looked like they were sailing to victory at one point after both Rob Guilfoyle and Ross Hannah netted their fifth goal of the campaign in the first 25 minutes.

Guilfoyle stormed down the left to sweep home in the 11th minute, before Hannah sent Oliver Rodzos the wrong way from 12 yards.

But the lead very quickly dissipated when the Briggers drew level six minutes later. Joshua Hague grabbed the first almost instantaneously with his teammate Owen Birks following him up in the 31st thanks to a headed goal that was ruled to have fractionally crossed the line by the referee’s assistant.

The contest was to be rescued, however, in part thanks to the introduction of George Noble to the Rossington midfield, which sparked some much-needed energy into the game. And the midfielder got his just reward too, when his shot squirmed under Rodzos for his first goal back in Rosso colours.

Mohssen Mohamed would go on to apply the gloss to the scoreline and seal the points when the Worsbrough defence fell asleep and allowed the winger to dart in on goal undetected, passing into an empty net after rounding the ‘keeper.

Going into the game, Main had designs on piling the pressure on those in the play-off picture and it showed in the early stages when Mack Warne picked out Guilfoyle lurking in the box, but the striker couldn't get off a clean strike.

He soon made amends, however, as he held off the challenge of Jake Holdsworth and left him in his wake to gently caress the ball beyond the Worsbrough ‘keeper, who couldn’t get down quick enough to prevent the deadlock from breaking.

Rosso continued to find joy down the left side with Oscar Wainwright, filling in at left back, skipping past Toure Bell only to be tripped inside the box on the way by the on-loan Barnsley man.

Hannah stood over the ball and picked out the bottom left corner to put the away side two to the good after 25 minutes.

But the celebrations didn’t last long as no sooner had the cheers from the travelling away support simmered down had Worsbrough got themselves back into the game with Hague firing past Kian Johnson.

And four minutes later, Bridge, who looked dangerous from set-pieces all evening, had equalised from a corner. The hosts piled the pressure on Johnson in the six-yard box as Birks met an in-swinging delivery. Remarkably the ‘keeper rose from the ground to claw the ball away, but it was deemed too late as the referee looked over to see the linesman signalling that the ball had crossed the goal line.

With Main stunned, Connor Glavin’s men had the force of momentum behind them, not least due to them playing downhill, and would’ve been heading into half-time with a lead had it not been for the outstretched leg of Reece Fielding keeping out Harrison Marvin.

Ben Hunter and Greg Young’s side re-emerged from the tunnel early for the second period, but it was the emergence of Noble early in the half that would ignite their team’s resurgence.

While Guilfoyle had a couple of half-chances at retaking the lead, Noble was to be the man with 20 minutes remaining. With time on his side, Warne sent in what would prove to be a nuisance of a cross to deal with as the Briggers failed to clear and Noble got past Birks to drive an effort at Rodzos, who was beaten by power as the ball found its way in despite getting a hand on it.

A momentary lapse in concentration almost had Rosso pegged back again when Worsbrough broke forward with numbers, but a divine intervention from Harry Mitchell saw him overtake the surging Bell and slide in at just the moment the full back was set to unleash a strike.

That aside, it only ever looked as if Rosso would be the team to grab the sixth of the contest with the side completely running over the top of Athletic.

Guilfoyle ran through and was denied the fourth, but Mohamed would make no mistake moments later. The winger caught the opposition napping, escaping the attention of the unorganised back line to collect a loose ball with only Rodzos to beat. Acrobatics ensued from the forward as he celebrated his first Rosso goal in style after jinking past him and accepting the invitation of an open goal.

Main kept the momentum they had built up in recent weeks going as fireworks lit up the night sky and will look to recover quickly ahead of their Senior Cup tie at Frickley Athletic.
