BRILLIANT BRIXTON INTO LAST 16
TREKKERS 0 BRIXTON OLD BOYS A 2
Strikes from Stefan Owide and a penalty from Rob Hershkorn was enough to put Brixton in the next round following an impressive performance in the Sunday Junior FA Cup.
In a physical match, Owide put the visitors in front with a looping header after seven minutes. Hershkorn added a second from the spot seven minutes into the second half.
Brixton manager John Nitka, who had to referee the game after the appointed official was forced to pull out, told JC Sport: "This was a very hard game bearing in mind I had six players out and we just had 11.
"The game could have gone either way but our defence was outstanding. A great result for brixton and now we have progressed into the last 16."
