Deeping Rangers Reserves 4 Yaxley Reserves 1

Rangers entertained Yaxley in this Reserves League Cup game and were soon in control going 2 – 0 up within 5 minutes, both goals being scored by David Burton-Jones. Yaxley slowly played their way back into the game but did not look very threatening in the first half.

 Burton-Jones had the ball in the net yet again before half time, but he was offside.

 Yaxley reduced the deficit early in the second half when ex-Ranger Scott Cunningham lobbed Rangers custodian Jamie Lowndes.

 The visitors then upped their tempo and put the hosts under pressure as they went looking for an equaliser.

 Deeping soon turned the tide, and another 2 quick goals from Burton-Jones completed the scoring.

 Later on Yaxley missed a clear cut chance when their player hit the bar with an open goal beckoning.

 Rangers were worthy winners and progress to the second round of the Knockout Cup
