Cornwall County Cup Semi-Final
Bude Tn 0
Saltash Utd 3
Saltash reached the first-ever County Cup Final in their short history with this impressive victory.
The Ashes had the majority of the early possession but couldn't find a way through.
Bude looked to counter-
attack, but found the Saltash back four in top form.
The opening goal came in the 18th minute when a Sam Drewery corner was flicked on at the near post to Coral Smith, who scored with a cross-shot.
The remainder of the first half was end-to-end, with both sides giving and asking questions.
Saltash started the second
period well, with Drewery and 'Player-of-the-Match' Grace O'Leary beginning to assert themselves in central midfield.
The Ashes' second came from the penalty spot on the hour after pressure from Stacey Arthur led to a handball being penalised, which Drewery converted.
Five minutes later Emma Pemberton made it 3-0 with a glancing header from a Leanne Griffiths cross.
Arthur almost made it 4-0 when her curling effort cannoned off the inside of the post but rolled across the goal-line.
The Ashes await the result of the St Breward versus Launceston semi-final tie to see who they will meet in the final.
