Southport 2 Hyde United 1
Southport FC progressed into the FA Cup 3rd Qualifying Round after a 2-1 win against Hyde United.
A 19th minute goal for Marcus Carver, his first of the season, and an 81st minute penalty from Danny Lloyd gave Southport a comfortable 2-0 lead but Hyde kept on going and an excellent 87th minute goal from Jordan Scanlon made for a nervy final 9 minutes.
It wasn’t a great spectacle but the objective of getting into the next round was achieved.
Line Up: Renshaw, Doyle, Minihan, Spooner, Quansah, Moore, Keane, Burgess(Morgan 73), Philliskirk, Carver, Owolabi (Lloyd 67).
Southport FC Head of Football Operations Andy Burgess said: “They were tricky opponents who made it hard for us.
“It’s all about being in the draw for the next round. Four games unbeaten.
“The attendance was north of 1,000 again.
“Well done everyone.”
Subs: Thomson, Knight-Percival, Proctor, Stafford, McMillan.
