Saints Through in CWFA Cup.

The Saints are through to the quarter final of The Central Wales Cup after a 1-2 victory away to Aber Uni.

A brace from top scorer Steve Morgan was enough to see us progress.

The majority of the game was a tight affair with very few chances throughout.

The Uni took the lead in the 12th minute from a corner which was headed in at the back post, just a minute later Steve Morgan cut in the from the left and shot across the keeper making it 1 – 1.

We took the lead in the 15th minute, some good link up play down the left saw Morgan score a carbon copy goal making it 1-2.

The rest of the half was very tight with possession shared,a Matty Tong shot skimmed the post and Jack Biggs header was headed off the life from a Brendan Hackett corner. We had one other chance from a Rob Snedden shot which was brilliantly saved by the Uni stopper. Up the other end Ryan Devlin looked lively but was very well marked by Matt James and Matt Croose. Ht 1-2.

I felt we kept the ball well for the first 25 minutes of the second half and looked in control but never really created anything, when the Uni broke like up the other end the defences were on top.

It really was a game of very few chances, Devlin had one chance late on but sliced his effort wide and at the death Adi Lawford was clear one on one with the keeper, Lawford tried passing to Morgan when perhaps he should of shot, the move coming to nothing in the end. Ft 1 – 2.

Not the best of games if i’m honest but we looked comfortable against a decent Uni side. I think the key was our two centre backs kept their top scorer quiet for most of the game, he looked a very good player but didn’t really got a sniff of goal bar the one effort that went wide. They are the fourth division 2 side we have played this season in cup competitions and by far the best and i’m sure won’t be far off gaining promotion come the end of the season.

A difficult ask to pick a man of the match, I thought all our defenders were very good today.

Team –

Steve Jones, Jake Atkinson(Rory Hackett), Matt Croose, Matt James, Tom James, Rob Snedden(Harry Gilbert), Brendan Hackett, Jack Biggs, Stu Davies(c), Steve Morgan and Matty Tong(Adi Lawford).
