Bulls overcome Newhaven challenge to reach next round of FA Cup

Luca Margaroli’s goal – fumbled into his own net by home ‘keeper Jake Buss midway through the opening half was harsh on a Newhaven side which showed plenty of intent.

The pivotal moment came just after the break when Evan Van Der Vliet produced an excellent save to deny Ian Robinson from the penalty spot, and it served as a timely wake up call for Gary Freeman’s men.

Solomon’s cute chip over Buss’s replacement, Dan Tasker, doubled Jersey’s lead before skipper Luke Campbell thumped home a penalty and Solomon curled in a sublime fourth five minutes from time.

Bulls will find out who their next opponents when the draw is made on Monday, with the match to be played on the weekend of 4 September.

Full report in Monday’s JEP.
