Chilcompton Sports 8 Burnham United 1

A crushing victory over Burnham United sets up a League Cup Semi-Final clash with Minehead.

Captain Dane Edwards opened the scoring on seventeen minutes and headed home a Matthaus Curtis corner.

Ollie Jones added the second on twenty-eight minutes, when he beat the full back and slotted the ball past the keeper.

Ryan Allen made it three goals soon after when he knocked a loose ball home from close range. The same player made it 4–0 on thirty-four minutes from the penalty spot after his initial shot had been blocked by the Burnham defenders’ arm and subsequently sent off.

On thirty-six minutes, Allen completed a six minute hat trick, again from the penalty spot after Ollie Jones had been brought down.

It was 6–0 on forty-one minutes when Keiron Robinson was on hand to convert the Ollie Jones cross.

The second half saw the goal scoring slow up but Kieron Robinson grabbed his second and the team’s seventh on the hour when John Willetts fired the goal of the game to make it 8–0. Burnham kept battling and managed a consolation goal five minutes before time.

Man of the Match was Ryan Allen.
