The match kicked off with an electrifying start as Chasetown quickly seized control, with number eight Langston finding the back of the net in the eighth minute. He expertly flicked in a cross from Chimenes, sending the Scholars into an early lead and igniting hope for Swanny’s men.

Just moments later, Lund nearly doubled the advantage, his powerful header narrowly missing the target as it dropped just wide of the post, leaving fans on the edge of their seats.

At the opposite end, Leek attempted to respond, but their shot was expertly saved by Pond, who showcased his skills with a brilliant jump for the ball . The action didn’t stop there; the ball was quickly recycled and slotted back to Dunne, who seized the opportunity to extend Chasetown's lead.

With precision and power, he struck the ball firmly into the back of the net, sending the Scholars further ahead and solidifying their dominance on the pitch.

As the second half unfolded, both teams struggled to find their rhythm, leading to a quieter period of play. However, Leek's Weir came close with a well-placed effort that skimmed just wide of the post, prompting Pond to remain alert. Cunningham also had his chance, but his attempt was hit just wide to be retrieved by Visser.

With this victory, Chasetown has secured a place in the Final of the Staffordshire Senior Cup, set to be contested at the Bet 365 Stadium on April 15th. Now, the focus shifts back to the league campaign as the Scholars aim to maintain their position in the playoff spots with only a few matches remaining.
