Cambridgeshire Junior Cup Semi-Final

Sawston 24 Ely II 5

ELY's second rugby team were convincingly beaten and denied a place in the final.

Sawston instantly looked threatening, particularly through the centre and down the wings, and a penalty kick gave them the lead. A try and conversion quickly made it 10-0.

Ely then conceded a succession of penalties, and a five-metre drive put the hosts 17-0 up at the break.

Ely looked more convincing in the second half, and opened with some good work from the forwards.

Sawston conceded five quick penalties which put the Tigers at the opposition's 10-metre line. After a quick tap and pass, Sean Kennett scored in the corner, reducing Sawston's lead to 17-5.

With both teams tiring, the game broke down, with play becoming scrappy and untidy.

Sawston sealed the win with another try.
