MATCH REPORT: Weston-super-Mare 1-0 Chippenham Town | Emirates FA Cup 3rd Qualifying Round Replay | Tuesday 1st October 2024

Published: at 9:24am

The Bluebirds bowed out of the FA Cup after a performance that deserved more than it got.


Luke Spokes was booked in the first thirty seconds for foot up and from the resulting free kick Weston hit the bar as Luke Coulson’s free kick hit the defensive wall and flew up on to the woodwork.

On four minutes a Chippenham corner ended with Harry Parsons firing a shot from outside of the area against the crossbar and the ball rebounded to keeper Max Harris.

Weston then won three successive corners which came to nothing.

On nineteen minutes Spokes’ shot was scrambled off the line by Harris and a Chippenham corner followed that saw Luke Haines fire a volley in and Harris turned it behind for another corner that came to nothing.

On thirty four minutes Weston broke away and Dylan Kadji’s cross towards on loan Bristol City striker Marley Rose saw the ball skid out.

HALF TIME: Weston-super-Mare 0-0 Chippenham Town

The opening minute of the second half saw Will Dawes’ shot take two deflections before Harris just managed to save it.

Will King was then harshly adjudged to have fouled Coulson and from the resulting free kick Brandon Bak opened the scoring with a headed effort.

A Chippenham corner on fifty three minutes ended with Tom Mehew’s scorpion kick being saved. Just after the hour Spokes’ free kick cleared the wall but Harris tipped it behind for a corner.

Just past the midway point Harris again excelled as he tipped over another Spokes free kick.

From the resulting Dawes corner Luke Haines headed just wide.

In the final minute of normal time Chippenham’s ninth corner of the game ended with substitute Alex Bray crossing to Haines who headed marginally wide.

In stoppage time Dawes appeared to be fouled in the area but nothing was given.

A long throw from Haines was then headed over by Mehew.
