MILLERS YOUTH TEAM SUFFER CUP DEFEAT

Posted on: Thu 09 Nov 2006

Rotherham United Youth Lost their FA youth cup match last night against Stockport County 5 - 3.

County had the ball in the back of the Millers net after just one minute but their celebrations didn't last too long as the linesman flagged for offside.

Rotherham came back with a superb volley from Captain Jamie Yates with his shot just off target.

Gianluca Havern put the Hatters in front, taking a fine cross from Growther and striking the ball past the Millers keeper.

Stockport were attacking in force when Elliss got the second for County with a 25 yard shot giving young Mark Oxley no chance.

County then got their third from a corner taken by Rowes with it flying past a crowded six yard box which curled into the goal.

On the 38th minute it was then the turn of Rotherham to get on the score sheet with a powerful strike by Jamie Yates which sailed past Ben Imeson.

Half time: County 3 Rotherham 1

County restored their three goal lead three minutes after the break when Coward headed past Oxley from a corner taken by Tansley.

The Millers piled on the pressure with Jamie Yates just off target from two strikes just outside the box.

Rotherham kept up the attack and on 71 minutes Jamie Green got the Millers second with a brilliant angled drive which gave the hatters keeper no chance.

86 minutes gone saw County get another goal when Coward sent a volley crashing into the net from a cross in by Havern.

Rotherham kept their heads high seeing Green scoring the Millers third from a close range header.

A great performance by both teams.

Rotherham United: Oxley, Darkin, Pendleton, Burridge, Vangucci, Haggerty (Greene 46), Hilton, Harrison, Yates, Thomas, Green.
