TUESDAY night's games in The Soccer Site Malvern Football League saw a shock result as injury-hit league leaders Bull Allstars went down 3-2 at Madresfield.
The home side's hero in a hard fought game was Graham Jones who grabbed a hat-trick. He netted in the 10th minute but Paul James equalised for Allstars before half time.
Two more goals from Jones in the 53rd and 58th minute put Madres-field 3-1 ahead. Mark Toman pulled a goal back for Allstars in the 75th minute to ensure a nerve-wracking finale for Madresfield but they held on to inflict Bulls only second defeat of the season.

The night's other game saw Brewery lose 1-2 to visitors Kempsey United Reserves. Brewery's goal came from Patrick Locke with Kempsey's goals coming from Ryan Leigh and Steven Freear.
Bull Allstars found themselves with a much-depleted team due to injuries and other commitments for their visit to Fromes Hill on Sunday. Despite starting with only 10 players and being reduced to eight due to injuries, they took all three points with a 4-0 victory. Their goal scorers were Jamie Gladwin, David Zakotti (two) and an own goal.
There was a very close game at Talbot Head when visitors Bell Inn 98 came from two goals down to snatch victory with the final kick. Talbot Head took a two-goal lead with goals from Lee Watts and John Patterson before Dave Beech pulled a goal back for the visitors in the 70th minute. Paul Gladwin equalised in the 80th minute and it looked like the points were going to be shared before Paul Rowe snatched all three points for Bell Inn 98 with a last minute goal.
Club AC 30 kept up their recent good form with a comfortable 7-1 victory over Eeore. Their goals came from Mark Haynes, Jason Payton-Smith (two) an own goal and a hat-trick by Jonathan Creba. Eeore's response came from David Jones.

Madresfield and Worcester Juniors shared the points with a 2-2 draw, Madresfield took the lead with a goal from Graham Jones, but goals from Chris White and Jamie Lawrence put Worcester Juniors ahead.
