Under 18s Exit Cup

The Jersey FA Under 18’s made a swift exit from the FA County Youth Cup after a 0-2 defeat at home to Kent. Kent whose only previous visit to the Island had result in a 1-0 home win were after revenged and two first half goals sealed the win.

After last seasons unlucky exit in the second round of the competition to a strong Berkshire side Jersey had hoped that this season they could have a good cup run. But this dream was abruptly brought crashing down after a lack lustre display at Springfield.

Jersey never really seemed to get into the game and after Kent scored their second on the stroke of half time there didn’t seem a way back for Dave Walsh’s squad.
