Lights go out on League Cup 11-goal thriller

By Jack Moore

ELEVEN goals and a first-half floodlight failure made for an eventful night in the final match of the Southern League Bigfreebet.com Challege Cup First Round.

Ben Stephens put Stratford in front but a Christian Tudorache own goal followed by Adam Mann’s strike put the Robins in front within eight minutes.

This was short lived as Jazz Luckie’s brace made it 3-2 to Stratford before a generator fault in the 22nd minute prompted a delay of 15 minutes.

Ben Stephens scored the goal of the night with a dipping free-kick across Sam Gilder and when Jazz Luckie fired in his third three minutes after half-time it looked all over for Evesham.

Lewis Powell and Carl Brown notched in back-to-back minutes, to give the hosts hope but despite a manful effort, Luckie’s fourth sealed the winl prior to Edwin Ahenkorah prodding in a stoppage-time gift.
