Port Vale summer friendly – new signing Tom Sang on target as Vale defeat Kidsgrove

Port Vale won the first match in their summer friendly double-header as they defeated Kidsgrove Athletic 2-0.

The Valiants included summer signings Jason Leutwiler, Tom Sang, Conor Grant, Ethan Chislett, Jason Lowe and Kofi Balmer in their starting eleven.

Vale had an early change for Sang as the Valiants dominated the opening period of the game. Youngster James Plant then gave Vale the lead on 37 minutes before keeper Leutwiler pulled off a fine save to make sure the Valiants led at the break.

Vale then doubled their lead in the second period when Tom Sang was fouled in the box. The same player put Vale further ahead from the penalty spot and it ended in a 2-0 win for the Valiants.
