Rams 2 Eton Wick 0 (League Cup)

The Rams lined up against Eton Wick in the 1st Round of the League Cup knowing that victory would see them proceed to the next round.

The SYCOB boys dominated possession against a big strong side and they made the breakthrough after some good passing and movement through midfield finnished with a low shot from Corey Edwards past the keeper. Eton Wick threatened an equaliser hitting us on the break a couple of times but the Rams defence was too strong for them. Several top saves from the Eton Wick keeper ensured the first half score line was only 1-0.

The second half continued much the same as the first with the home side dominating the play, it was backs against the wall from Eton who ensured they had plenty of lads behind the ball to try and limit the damage. Sean Chivers shifted the ball to work the space for a shot on goal that was poked in from close range by Tom Scott. James Heady was in good form again, Lewis was hard working as usual and all the boys can take credit for a well fought victory which see the Rams progress into the 2nd Round. Arran did well once again, kept possession well and picked out some great passes, Callum and Connor Campbell ensured the Rams kept a clean sheet and limited the Away sides chances!

MOTM went to Sean Chivers for a fine performance, once again displaying his versatility by playing in 3 different positions during the match, well done Sean!
