Okehampton Argyle FC

Okehampton Argyle 3-2 Exeter Civil Service

Venue: simmons Park

Argyle moved a step closer to the final and within a week have progressed to two cup semi finals with last weeks success over Exmouth. Civil took an early lead when the Argyle keeper failed to hold on to a cross, the Civil striker pounced to punish his mistake. Okehampton battled hard and were unlucky when Steve Williams' cross was met by Robbie Sandercock and came back off the foot of the post. A good move saw Argyle level when Steve Kinsey made a fine run down the right wing crossing for Steve Williams to equalise.
The second half started with Argyle playing the better football and they were soon rewarded when Steve Kinsey was brought down in the area and James Williams stepped up to take the penalty. With a powerful shot he found the corner of the net.
Argyle concentrated on their football and added a third when a Sandercock corner found James Williams. He made no mistake and hammered the ball home from a tight angle. Civil battled hard and were denied by a superb save from the Argyle keeper when one on one the keeper spread himself well and saved with his feet. A good move by Civil was rewarded with a goal when they raided down Argyle's right wing and delivered a good cross for the striker to cleanly head home.
