Cup stalemate

Gerard Buxton Sports Ground, Saturday 10th August 2019

Royal Wootton Bassett Town's Emirates FA Cup Extra Preliminary round tie at home against Aylesbury Vale Dynamos ended all square as the teams drew 1-1.

Royal Wootton Bassett Town face a Tuesday night trip to Buckinghamshire after a dour 1-1 draw in their Emirates FA Cup Extra Preliminary round tie against Aylesbury Vale Dynamos.

A gusty, crossfield wind made life difficult for both teams, but there was little quality throughout a frustrating ninety minutes of cup football.

Both goals came in the first half.

Left back Chris Jackson, starting his first game of the season having had to make do with a place on the bench for the opening two league games, had put Bassett ahead after 21 minutes with a powerful effort from outside the area.

However, the Dynamos got back on terms - and ultimately earned a replay - when Keith Murfururirwa lifted he ball over an advancing Declan Lehmann just before the break.
