The Fabulous Artisans v YTFIB

Cheese Makers beat the Aardvarks at the weekend and repeated the feat to take Matthew to just his second FA Cup semi-final. Joao Pedro sped away from the Abacus defence to dink over the keeper and Nico O’Reilly finished off an end-to-end move to get first half goals for the Cheese, Tyrone Mings and Nikola Milenkovic saw the game out with clean sheets to complete a 4-0 win. Jorgen Strand Larsen re-discovered his scoring boots* with a brace in the CFJs 3-0 win over GC TotW. Strand Larsen struck twice before the break and the ever-reliable Tomas Soucek added the third with a deft near-post finish five minutes after the interval.

An uninspiring tie between San Dimas and Wheel Madrid was settled in my team’s favour by an Emi Martinez clean.We do have a reply to sort out though. YTFIB nearly pulled off a shock over the Artisans with Antoine Semenyo’s close range lunge and Amine Adli’s header into an unguarded net putting Julian’s team two up. Ben earned a second crack at going through with cleans from El Hadji Malick Diouf (after 80 minutes) and Marc Guehi.

* Ok, he headed one in but cut me some slack here please.
