PAULTON ROVERS 1 v 1 WEYMOUTH

Paulton won an exiting cup match against Weymouth winning 4-3 in a penalty shootout after honours were even after 90 minutes.

Both sides provided an entertaining first half and created several chances.

Jake Mawford back with Paulton was on hand to test keeper Jason Matthews the Paulton born Weymouth player manager.

On 10 minutes Mawford was very harshly adjudged offside was he appeared to race past the visitors defence for Kane Simpson to turn the ball past Matthews.

Chae Brancman had a chance for Weymouth bringing a fine save with from Rovers keeper Andrew Hannah.

Weymouth had a tremendous shot after 47 minutes as Jordan Copp hit a 35 yard shot which hit the post and from the replay Brancman's header brought a Gordon Bankesque save from Hannah.

Hannah then held a shot from Charlie Davis and blocked a drive from Stuart Fleetwood.

Rovers created their best chance on 72 minute as Kailan Gould found Will Hailston laid it back to Adam Mahmood and is cross was headed wide by Simpson with the goal at his mercy.

Two minutes later Paulton went ahead as Gould broke down the left cut in and Simpson was on hand to score.

They should have added a second as Gould's cross saw Simpson miss the target with another header.

Weymouth pressed although Rovers appeared to weather the storm but in the 90th minute Dan Smith's cross was unfortunatly diverted into his own net by Alex Grimshaw spoiling an otherwise solid performance.

Paulton converted all their four penalties through Hailston, Simpson, Mawford and Gould.

For Weymouth Copp, Fleetwood and Brooks with Smith's saved by Hannah and Tarbuck hitting the crossbar.
