Spurs were the much more dominant side in the first half and took the lead just five minutes in when Donley found Rio Kyerematen, who volleyed home from close range.

The striker then himself got on the end of a cross ten minutes later to give the home side some breathing space.

However, the visitors gave a much better account of themselves in the second half and drew level through two quickfire goals from Osman Kamara.

It was Donley who had the last laugh as the striker won a late penalty before stepping up to convert from the spot to give the Lilywhites all three points.

Donley continues to go from strength to strength, with the striker looking a class above everyone else in the Under-18s set-up.

I expect the teenager to feature regularly in Premier League 2 next season as he is clearly too good for this level.
