Excellent performance today from the boys in last 32 of Scottish against a technically strong W Academy side.

Final score not totally reflective of the game as we dominated first half and could've had another 4 or 5 goals. Dan with four good openings, Eman with a couple and both Leo and Max with shots blocked on line. We only had Tyler's goal in the 6th minute to show for our efforts - taking a short corner from Adam and steering into the bottom corner.

2nd half and we got the crucial second our play deserved.

Adam latching onto a clearance and he fed in Eman who took a touch and finished well.

Despite a couple of good penalty shouts ourselves it was our visitors who got a spot kick with 15mins left. Their lad finished well and it made for a nervy finish to a match we should have been out of sight in.

Through to the last 16 where it will only continue to get tougher.

MOTM - great to have the likes of Evan and Tyler back today who both performed very well. Haris with another solid performance, and very encouraging to see Leo back to his old self after a nagging injury. Adam worked hard with a couple of assists - but MOTM today is Tyler. Great ball carrying as ever, a goal and should've had a couple of assists on another day.
