Kewford South 2:1 West Hagley - Open Cup Final

8 May 2016 by Chris Tidman

Kewford Eagles South claimed a cup double with a hard earned win against a committed West Hagley team. Kewford opened the scoring thanks to a brilliant solo effort from Ryan Grovesnor. The lead was doubled when a second half Chad Carter corner was headed in for an unlucky OG. Kewford looked for the killer third goal but it was West Hagley who capitalised on a defensive mistake and brought it back to 2:1 to make it a nervy last 10 minutes. But Kewford saw out the game with strong defending to deservedly take the cup. Full marks to West Hagley who were always a threat on the break and who defended excellently. Votes received for Jakob 2, Ryan 3, and Chad 8, so man of the match goes to Chad Carter for work rate and dominance in the middle of the park.
