Match Report

West Cornwall got of to another great start in the 3rd round match going 1-0 up in the 1st half thanks to a delicate chip over the goal keeper from William Trew approximately 20 yards out. The game in the 1st half was highly contested with West Cornwall going in at half time 1-0 leaders.

After the break, Poole-East dorset made it 1-1 after good link up play between the forward and winger resulting in a good finish shooting across the West Cornwall Goal Keeper from a tight angle from inside the box. West Cornwall soon restored the lead with a finish from Finn Cross to make it 2-1 and Finn again made it 3-1 after another effective end product from a good phase of ball retention.

The 4th goal and the best goal of the match had to go to Oliver Walker who rifled a 35 yard 1st time shot into the top corner of the net which looped over the goal keepers head after a clearance was made from a West Cornwall attacking corner. The opposition soon made it 4-2 after a mix up in the West Cornwall defence from a corner.

All players did themselves, their schools and their District proud looking very professional travelling up in their West Cornwall ties and their behaviour whilst on the coach and at the game was exemplary.

The selected squad of 16 players for the game was chosen from a squad of 26 who performed to a really high standard dominating the game physically and technically.
