FA Sunday Cup Semi-Final at Billingham Synthonia

Hetton Lyons Cricket Club FC 2 - 1 Oyster Martyrs
Both teams looking for a place in the final started nervously and visitors started to get the upper hand and had a glorious chance to take the lead in the 17th minute, a wayward header from a Lyons defender and the ball fell nicely for the lively McGivern and he was one on one with the goalkeeper but a tremendous save from Finch denied them the lead. It was the Lyons that took the lead in the 26th minute, a cross on the right hand side and Davison out jumped the Oyster's Goalkeeper and his header fell to Callum Griffiths to slot the ball into the net for his first goal of the season.

Second half and the Lyons started much better than in the first half, Ellision had a glorious chance to put he Lyons further ahead but his shot went over the crossbar. Hetton did get the second goal in the 61st minute a lovely thru ball from Graydon to Mark Davison and his shot from a tight angle gave the Goalkeeper no chance 2-0. Oysters had to push more men forward to get a goal and that came in the 70th minute a cross from the by line and McGivern was their to poke the ball in to the net 2-1. The Liverpool side had their centre half sent off shortly after for a reckless tackle on Substitute Watson. In the 90th minute Oyster should have sent the game into extra time but from five yards out the striker saw his shot go over the bar
