Match report   Today’s game was against Tadcaster Albion away in the league cup, the cup we reached the final of last season.

We began the game strongly and attacked Tadcaster immediately going 2-0 up after 5 minutes through 2 Ollie goals.

A loss of concentration saw Tadcaster pull a goal back through a free kick which saw all our players watch the ball creep in the corner. One could tell that the players felt down after such a good start and from this moment struggled to break down a resolute Tadcaster defence. The opposing goalkeeper saved a number of shots however Louis scored a left foot rocket with 6 mins of the half left. Damian and Ellis troubled the defence but couldn’t add any further goals in the first half.

The lions were 3-1 up at half time and looked comfortable. Ethan continued his excellent corner taking and managed to score 2 goals straight from the set piece whipping the ball in with pace which swerved straight into the goal.

Dougie and Simeon looked firm at the back with our midfield playing well but the attacking aspect lacked the ‘pass and move’ football but the Lions kept persevering. In the second half the lions added additional goals from Damian and George (who scored 2), his second a well aimed shot into the roof of the net.

Jordan played with confidence today and looked good in the second half working well with Damian.

The game ended 8-1 which was a fair reflection of how the game was played however Tadcaster Albion never gave in and continuously made the game difficult for Fulford to deny them total control.

The PotM for Fulford was selected by a number of adults , in addition the Tadcaster Albion coach also noted Ethan's corners caused trouble for his team. His defending, two goals and cracking corners sawEthan nudge the PotM award but all the team played well.

Well done again to the Lions, we look forward to the 2nd round draw and hope to emulate last years effort in the Cup.
