RCA The Barnes 6 Washington 'F' Pit 1

Kitchen Magic Cup First Round

Sunday 22 February 2009

RCA comfortably came through this tie against First Division opponents Washington 'F' Pit. Fielding a weakened team due to various circumstances and having to play right back Alan Surtees in goal - he volunteered and had an excellent match - RCA took a 2-0 lead into half time after kicking against a strong wind and up the slope, goals coming from the strike pairing of Willie Crew and Andy Place.

The second half took on the same pattern as the first with RCA extending their lead to 4-0 with further strikes by the said deadly duo, before Washington's spirited performance saw them pull a goal back after 70 minutes.

RCA then replied with a further two goals, again from the terrible twins, to give a final scoreline of 6-1, with both leading goalscorers, 23 goals now, Willie Crew and Andy Place grabbing a hat-trick each.
