Reds pass a test of skill at Aggborough...

Harriers kept up their pre-season form with a 1-0 win over a youthful Wolves XI at Aggborough on Friday night.

There was an early chance for Harriers when Anthony Malbon headed wide after a few minutes, Ricky Shakes then seeing an effort hooked off the line with around half an hour gone.

Wolves came close on 36 minutes when a Matt Doherty header was held by goalkeeper Robert Ambrusics, who then kept out Adam Hamill's free-kick.

Shakes was at it again early in the second as he forced Aaron McCary into a neat far-post save; the game disjointed a little by wholesale changes.

On 73 minutes Johnny Gorman fizzed an effort at goal that was turned around the post well by Ambrusics, the deadlock broken by Harriers six minutes later; an excellent Danny Pilkington free-kick curling around the wall and finding the bottom corner from around 20 yards.
