Throgmorton League Cup

Vospers Oak Villa 1

Tavistock 3

TAVISTOCK move to the third round of the cup, following this comfortable win at Weston Mill.

Once again the Lambs have been landed another away tie in the next round at Penzance.

The Lambs started at a tremendous pace and as early as the fourth minute they should have taken the lead when after some fine work by Paul Adcock set up Glyn Hobbs, who shot just wide of the target with the keeper well beaten.

Minutes later Richard Maddison chipped a ball into the box and Adam Carters headed just over the bar.

In the 14th minute the hosts were awarded a penalty when Lee Bevan was adjudged to have pushed Lee Allman in the box, but Tony Bouch's spot kick hit the upright and bounced to safety.

Adam Carter then missed a glorious chance to give the visitors the lead, before finally in the 24th minute the visitors took a deserved lead, after some excellent work by Adcock saw his cross volleyed home from eight yards by the on rushing Maddison.

The Lambs were putting the home defence under pressure and it was no surprise when in the 36th minute Paul Adcock was brought down by Ian Revell. Lee Bevan smashed the spot kick into the top corner of the net.

Vosper's came more into the game in the second half, and their efforts were rewarded in the 62nd minute when John Scholes scored.

The Lambs then had lost their composure for a short period, but Vosper's revival was short lived, in the 70th minute Glyn Hobbs went on one of his penetrating runs resulting in him being up ended in the penalty area by Revell. Lee Bevan stepped up to convert the spot kick.

It was the visitors who should have added to their goal tally, but they controlled the remainder of the game and ran out worthy winners.

The hosts were outplayed for long periods but can hold their heads high as they gave it a real go.

l This Saturday the Lambs travel to St Blazey, kick-off 3pm.

Rowett League Cup

Tavistock Reserves 2

Sticker 1

THE LAMBS' second team produced a fine display to over come their high flying opponents to reach the quarter final of the cup.

Sticker started well and Chris Kitson gave them an early lead. Tavistock levelled the scores after 25 minutes when Ricky Allen fired home a 25 yard free kick.

Robbie Court then gave the hosts the lead in the second half when he headed in a corner kick but the same player blotted his copy book when he was sent off.

The ten men held on as Sticker piled on the pressure to get an equalize, but they found the Lambs goalkeeper Richard Rowe in excellent form.
