SWYD 4-2 FC United of Yate

Yesterday SWYD faced the leaders of the top division in the GFA Cup Quarter-Final at our home ground, Scott Park, Patchway.

On paper it looked as if SWYD stood little chance of coming away with a result. But we rose to the challenge and two very early goals from Ben Sayers and Matt Webley gave us a surprise 2-0 lead in the first 10 minutes. Both goals were assisted by our full backs Jack Sayers and Tom Hemmings with low driven crosses which found our attackers who both tapped the ball into the net.

About 25 minutes in, Ben Sayers then decided he would turn into a prime Paul Scholes and hit an absolute rocket from 30 yards out which struck the underside of the crossbar before crossing the line. 3-0.

Jack Chatfield also got in on the act with a minute of the first half to go. Chatfield was slipped in by Ben Sayers and made no mistake with the finish, placing it past the Yate keeper to make it 4-0.

The game changed in the second half, SWYD sat back and invited pressure from Yate who scored two early goals. However SWYD stayed defensively resilient and were able to hold off waves of pressure from Yate, coming away 4-2 winners.

MOTM - Josh Palmer, who played a vital role in limiting the amount of chances Yate had.
Donkey - Jack Sayers, for a terrible foul throw.

Onto the semi-finals. SWYD are massive. 💚🖤

We would also like the thank SENTIENT ELECTRICAL SERVICES for sponsoring us with our new kit.
