James_Wright Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 PENZANCE 1 LISKEARD ATHLETIC 2 Liskeard Athletic progressed to the semi-finals of the Ward Williams Cornwall Senior Cup, but were pushed all the way by a spirited Penzance side on a bitterly cold night at Penlee Park. The Magpies brushed off the absence of captain Tyler Tonkin, and stunned their table-topping visitors by taking a 13th minute lead. After Will Trenoweth had saved a Mike Smith header, the home side counter-attacked down the right. Jacob Trudgeon fired over a delicious centre that Darryl Richards, arriving at pace, smashed home for this first goal of the season. Liskeard levelled just ten minutes later when Mark Vercesi was penalised for handball during a goalmouth scramble. Smith emphatically rammed the spot kick to Trenoweth’s right, but the home side were unfazed and perhaps somewhat unfortunate not have regained the lead by the interval. Vercesi was denied twice in a matter of seconds, firstly by an excellent save from Sam Borthwick then, from the resultant corner, by a goal-line clearance from his powerful header. Trudgeon was also extremely unlucky to see a powerful shot tipped by Borthwick on to the cross-bar. The Blues were themselves denied by the woodwork seconds after the restart, Josh McCabe slamming a low shot against Trenoweth’s left-hand post. The sides then traded chances during an exciting, hard-fought half until Liskeard made the critical break-through just seven minutes from time. Substitute Macauley Thorp fed a pass out to Ben Collins wide on the left. The latter’s splendid cross was converted at the far post by James Rowe, himself on the pitch for barely a couple of minutes, to put Darren Gilbert’s side into the last four. “Tonight the boys were magnificent. The commitment and work-rate are something the club can be proud of,” said Penzance manager Ashley Waters. “We’ve gone toe to toe with a top Liskeard team, and are unlucky to come away as losers.” Penzance: Will Trenoweth, Archie Reynolds, James Butler, Ollie Butler (Kizzy Snowden 78), Mark Vercesi, Silas Sullivan, Jacob Trudgeon, Kam Collins, Rolandos Samnauskas, Darryl Richards, Charlie Willis. Unused subs: Lewis Hitchens, Alfie Turner, Michael Fitchett, Freddie Neaum Liskeard: Sam Borthwick, Josh McCabe, Matt Outtram, Harry Bell, Will Gilbert, Ruben Kane, Finn Bartlett, Jarrad Woods, Mike Smith, Dan Jennings, Ben Collins. Subs: Harvey Mullis, Macauley Thorp, James Rowe, Bobby Hopkinson Referee: Nigel D’Arcy Assistants: Max Davies, Liam Bray Attendance: 89 mattelot, Dave Deacon, JonColenzo and 4 others 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triggs60 Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 Great win for the blues. Semis already shaping up to be exciting with whoever joins Falmouth and Liskeard. I do like these latter rounds as muliple players are cup tied or end up pulling players back who have left for higher or lower leagues, makes it even more exciting.

Cornwall having clubs in the Western League has added a bit of spice to the Senior Cup, just a shame Mousehole aren't in the competition as well. St Austell v Helston tonight looks like a really tasty step 6 v step 5 clash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Bray Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 St.Austell v Helston postponed. Can only assume that the match referee was of the opinion that the playing surface was not fit for purpose. Cancelled at around 6.30 / 6.45. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justanopinion Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 Isn't that the 2nd time it's happened this season? What is it with St Austell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Austell did a pitch inspection at 4:30pm and pitch was OK. You’d have thought the better option would have been to inspect the night before to see the conditions at kick off time as that would be a much better indicator.
