—————————————————-
GOALKEEPER
David Sacal (Maccabi London Lions A) – The Mexican was brilliant between the sticks, pulling off several fines stops which led to Lions’ dramatic late win
DEFENDERS:
Gideon Caller (RC UK FC) – Played more as a left winger than left-back, was never caught out and was always an outlet
Ashley Hirschberger (Hertswood Vale) – Started the game at RB, putting in some crunching tackles, before moving to centre-back to ensure a second consecutive clean sheet
Alex Taylor (Maccabi London Lions A) – Brilliant at the back for Lions, rock-solid for the Rowley Lane side as they claimed the Cyril Anekstein Cup
Jonti Aremband (RC UK FC) – Brilliant offensive performance at full-back – perfectly illustrated by scoring a hat-trick
MIDFIELDERS:
Josh Gorb (Hertswood Vale) – Vale’s man-of-the-match. A fantastic display from the first-half sub. Scored two well-taken goals, moved back to left-back where he claimed another two assists
Adam Arnold (Maccabi London Lions A) – Brilliant in the middle for the Lions, helped stave off Redbridge attacks, was key to his side’s win at Wingate
Brett Stead (Temple Fortune) – Solid showing in midfield, scored twice in three second half minutes, though it wasn’t enough to prevent his side’s exit from cup
Rob Benson (North London Raiders B) – Scored and put in a superb cross to grab an assist for Jake Gilbert’s goal as Raiders claimed thrilling win
STRIKERS:
Harry Graham (Hertswood Vale) – Took his tally to nine goals in ten games and was unlucky not to grab a hat-trick when he hit the woodwork late on
Paul Lenchner (NL Raiders Masters) – Playing for the side as a guest – and made his impact, getting on the scoresheet to help his adopted team into the semi-finals

David Sacal (Maccabi London Lions A)

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
