Rovers out of FA Youth Cup

Paulton disappointedly went out of the FA Cup after being hit by three very early goals from the visitors.

In the 3rd minute Brislington captain Jayden Nelson head home a free kick taken by Taylor Kissack.

A neat one two on the counter by Blaine Lawrence and Jake Curtis saw a shot from the former held by Ben Payter.

Brislington made it 2-0 on 10 minutes after Rovers keeper Sean Salter had saved from Jay Bray in the follow up Joe Thorn chip the ball over Salter into the net.

Two minutes later it was 3-0 as a long ball saw Bray looking yards offside to face on and score. The assistant referee consistently struggled to keep up with play so the goal stood despite protests.

As Paulton improved Lawrence, Curtis and Archie Blacker all saw chances held by Payter.

The second half saw Rovers much more potent and Payter was much the busier again saving from Lawrence and Curtis and tipping Blacker's low shot for a corner.

Paulton did score on 57 minutes as the impressive Ali Sen dribbled past three defender to plant a fierce shot past Payter.

Rovers piled on the pressure as Mason Harrison shot wide and Payter saved from Lucas Hawkins and Sen.

As Paulton pushed forward Brislington had a great chance to add to the score but had to answer to Salter saving from Nelson and Reagan Gazzard.
