Marriott Nets Two in Woking Comeback - Ipswich Town News

Striker Jack Marriott netted twice as his loan side Woking came from two goals behind to beat Hyde 3-2 at the Kingfield Stadium this afternoon.

Marriott, who scored one and created one on his debut as the Cards beat Dartford 3-0 on Tuesday, made it 2-1 in the 40th minute then, after ex-Cambridge man Scott Rendell had equalised, added the third on 74.

The 19-year-old was replaced in the 88th minute and as on Tuesday received a standing ovation from the home fans. There's a post-match interview with Marriott on the Woking official website here.

Elsewhere, right-back Elliott Hewitt made his debut for his loan club Gillingham as they beat Sheffield United 2-1 at Bramall Lane and impressed Gills manager Peter Taylor: "Hewitt looks like the real deal."

The 19-year-old played the full 90 minutes and picked up a second-half booking for a foul.

Young left-back David October, 18, played the full 90 minutes as Histon were defeated 3-0 at Guiseley in the FA Trophy third qualifying round.

Meanwhile, academy first-year scholar Jonny Smith is likely to be in action for Northern Ireland’s U17s against Luxembourg in the European Championships mini-tournament they are hosting at Solitude in Belfast this evening (KO 7pm).

Smith came on as a sub in the Northern Irish youngsters’ 1-0 defeat to Latvia in their opening game on Thursday.
