Early lead for Guiseley cancelled out by Hyde United at Nethermoor Park

Guiseley and Hyde United shared the points in a 1-1 draw at Nethermoor Park on Saturday, 4 April 2026, in a closely contested Northern Premier League Premier Division fixture. The match saw Guiseley take an early lead, but Hyde United responded to level the scoreline, with both sides creating chances throughout the game.

Match Summary

Guiseley started the game strongly, opening the scoring within five minutes. Lebrun Mbeka made a powerful counter-attacking run before setting up Joao Silva on the left wing, who managed to get past his marker and score confidently.

The hosts continued to press in the first half, with Amir Berchil nearly doubling Guiseley’s advantage through a long-range effort that tested Hyde goalkeeper Li-Bau Stowell.

Despite Guiseley’s dominance, Hyde United equalised shortly afterwards. A corner taken by Dontai Gabidon rebounded to Jack Redshaw at the back post, who scored from close range to bring the Tigers level.

As the first half drew to a close, Hyde threatened to take the lead. Tunde Owolabi capitalised on a midfield turnover and advanced towards the Guiseley defence, finding Gabidon whose shot went wide.

Second Half Action

The second half saw Guiseley maintain pressure, with Berchil making a notable run to the byline and delivering a cross that nearly found Harrison Hopper in the six-yard box.

Hyde responded with counter-attacks of their own, including a promising move led by Redshaw and Gabidon, whose shot narrowly missed the target.

Hyde appeared to have taken the lead with 20 minutes remaining when a free kick was headed across the goal and tapped in by Will Hall. However, the assistant referee flagged for offside, and the goal was disallowed.

Guiseley nearly scored again moments later from a corner, with Ollie Brown’s effort striking the crossbar.
