Nothing further was added before the break leaving the Bulls with a 1-0 half time lead.

Newhaven came out strongly at the turn of the half and earned a penalty on 48 minuets but it was superbly saved by the Jersey Bulls keeper Euan Van Der Vliet.

The game ebbed and flowed but just after the hour mark Bulls midfielder Sol Solomon came forward and chipped the keeper to consolidate a 2-0 lead.

After this the Bulls then took control of the game when the Newhaven goalkeeper gave away a penalty 67 minuets. It was converted by Luke Campbell to consolidate a three goal lead.

The result was in no doubt when Sol Solomon grabbed his second in a rather scrappy fashion but made it a 4-0 lead on 83 minuets.

It finished 4-0 to the Bulls meaning they advance to the first qualifying round of the FA Cup.
