Wirral District FA Junior Cup semi-final

A second team from our league made it through to a major final as One O’Clock Gun shot down the Gunners in the Wirral District FA Junior Cup semi-final in a fixture best described as a ‘full blooded’ affair. The Gun took a two-goal lead through Wayne Gibbons and Liam Keating before conceding before the break. The second half saw both sides strive for supremacy, but with 10 minutes remaining Jamie Edwards fired home an excellent goal to seal a 3-1 victory for the Gun in a game well marshalled by referee Matthew Turner and his assitants.
