Walsall Senior Cup

Casuals belied the league tables with a host of good first half chances. Liam Hughes and Fabian Facey both forced saves from Curtis Pond.

Josh Sedgley then cleared off the line to keep it scoreless.

Chasetown had their first half chances too. Jake Lovatt fired wide from range and Nick Wellecomme was inches wide of the post.

On the stroke of half-time Chad Degville forced keeper Vitor Pinheiro into a near post save.

Casuals took the lead at the start of the second half as the visitors went to sleep and Jake Walton gave the West Midlands Premier side the lead.

Casuals extended their lead with an effort from Hughes from inside the box beyond Pond.

Cassies then struck the bar in the 80th minute as the hosts looked to cement their victory.

Chasetown thought they found a way back with a Jake Lovatt header that was disallowed for offside.

Will Whieldon hit the crossbar with a late free kick but it was too little too late.

The Scholars were reduced to ten men with Tom Urwin seeing red.
