Winter Nets Winner - Ipswich Town News

Academy second-year scholar Tom Winter scored the winner as his loan club Leiston beat Thurrock 2-1 at Victory Road despite having been reduced to 10 men this evening.

The goal, which came just before the hour, was striker Winter’s fourth for Leiston, all of them coming in their last three games, which have all been played since Saturday.

The 18-year-old is one of the five scholars to have been offered professional terms by the Blues.
