Lion's 0 v 3 A1 Trophies

Lion's starting eleven: French, P.Farr, Fildes, Dunnicliffe, Jenkins, J.Griffin(C), Burnage, Jeffrey, Pearson, Restall, Harrison.

Breachwood had a good start, with a shot for fullback Pete Farr and an indirect free kick just inside the penalty area from Burnage coming close.

However it was A1 who took the lead and then had the chance to double it with a penalty after a foul from Dunnicliffe, but the spot kick went wide.

The Lion's missed the chance to draw level just before half time when they were unable to convert a great whipped in cross from Burnage.

In the second half Chad Eldridge replaced the injured Pete Farr but didnt last long after being forced off with an injury and replaced by Louis Griffin.

The Lion's attack was bolstered by Gardner replacing Alfie Restall.

As the Lion's pushed forward, A1 exploited the gaps to score two more goals.

Chances fell to Fildes, Burnage and Harrison, but Breachwood ran out of time.

Final score 3 nil to A1 Trophies.

Breachwood Man of the match: Goalkeeper Graham French for a couple of great saves.

Substitutes not used: D.Farr, Nathan & Steve
