Sutton United progress in Cup competition

     ⚽Birmingham County FA Saturday Vase. Round 1⚽

Gornal Athletic 0 Sutton United 4


The Garden Walk Stadium


Gornals' involvement in this competition came to a shuddering halt at the first hurdle; their opponents Sutton simply being too good on the day. 

The first few minutes saw the hosts take the initiative with a couple of promising raids down the right but that was about as bright as their star was to shine as the visitors took hold of the game and never let go of their stranglehold on proceedings. Where passes went astray from the hosts, the visitors were able to stroke the ball around with confidence, rarely giving it away. Try as they might,and they certainly did strain the sinews,Gornal were unable to seriously threaten the Sutton goal.The visitors were too quick and too strong on the day.

With a 3-0 half-time lead it was probably inevitable more goals would follow in the second half and the surprise was there was only one.
Fair play to Gornal,they gave it everything but were up against a much better side on the day.
