Nostell MW climbed out of the bottom three in the NCE Division One when they came out on top in a derby against an in-form Glasshoughton Welfare side – and photographer Scott Merrylees was there to capture the action.

Goals from Charlie Austerfield and Gracjan Klimczak gave Nostell a 2-0 success to lift them up a place in the table.

It was their second successive league win and third clean sheet in a row while Glasshoughton had won their previous three matches in the NCE Division One and are only four points off the play-off places.

Here’s action from the match as captured by Scott Merrylees:
