FA VASE SECOND QUALIFYING ROUND

LONDON LIONS 0 BIGGLESWADE UNITED 3

United were in control from the off, and tested Dan Lipman in the Lions goal before a trip inside the box gave the visitors a chance to take the lead early on. The Biggleswade striker made no mistake as Lipman was unable to repeat his penalty heroics from his last game.

United continued to press and Lions were grateful for a flag when the ball hit the net again and then the ball striking the bar minutes later from another attack, but it was brief respite as the visitors doubled their lead when despite Lipman’s initial save, the ball fell kindly for Biggleswade to make it 2-0 at the break.
