Stepney 3–1 Heaton

Stepney outlasted Heaton at home, two goals separating them at the end, 3–1. The Falcons' 12th and the Manchester club's 3rd made for a tight enough contest on paper, 4 points apart. The Falcons had recent form reading blowing hot and cold; the Manchester club's read drawing everything in sight. There was little to separate the sides on the ball; shots finished 6–9, on target 4–4, corners 0–3. Mwale's strike was the pick of Stepney's chances, kept out. The frame was spared by Comencini's effort, Stepney's sharpest threat. Heaton will look back on Cifuentes-Bedoya's effort, saved when it mattered most. The sharpest Heaton chance belonged to Köprülü, saved at full stretch. Köprülü steered Engelhardt's ball home for Heaton on 16' (0–1). Comencini applied the finish for Stepney on 19' (1–1). On 25', Mediavilla teed up Elordi for Stepney (2–1). Mediavilla did the work, Comencini the rest, for Stepney on 27' (3–1). Heaton committed 15 fouls, Stepney added 10 fouls of their own. The card came out for Köprülü of Heaton on 1'. Cifuentes-Bedoya joined the book for Heaton on 64'. The referee reached for yellow on 77', Cranford the recipient for Stepney. Fichte-Berg was booked on 84', Heaton now watching his tackles. Job's a good one for Stepney; not so for Heaton.
