Match Report:

This was always going to be a difficult match. Chesterfield tend to win the County Cup on an annual basis so we were more than aware of the fact that this was arguably the toughest in the competition. We started brightly and although the Chesterfield forwards appeared sharp they never really looked like troubling Evans and Sanderson at the back.

Ndu CHILAKA was in phenomenal form up front, looking fast and strong as he helped himself to two goals and set the other up for Steven MULLEN. The match should have been more comfortable, but some sloppy play basically gifted them a couple of goals to make it much tighter than it should have been.

A perfect workout ahead of the ISFA Final.
