We at the Gloverscast are pretty sure you’ve heard, Yeovil beat W*ymouth in the FA Cup fourth qualifying round – on penalties.
After the game, Sonny Blu Lo-Everton spoke to the BBC about the topsy turvey game and the Watford loanee couldn’t quite believe what had happened.
“We’ve come to their ground and played the way we wanted to play, we’ve dominated the whole game, we’ve had more chances than them, stopped more chances than them, but the cross in the eighty-something minute (87th if anyone cares) was tough to take, and you can see the charachter of the boys to keep fighting for the extra 30 minutes and for the penalty as well”
The game ebbed and flowed, with the Glovers having, and spurning, chances, penalty claims waved away and yet more ‘was it over the line’ moments for Yeovil attackers, but after all was said and done, it was Yeovil who progressed through on spot-kicks, which led to briliant scenes between fans and players, something which the attacker says he’ll never forget.
“Just to see the fans, the atmosphere was unreal, I’ve never played in a game like it…”
“We have a ‘fight to the end’ charachter in this team… we performed well and got the result, that’s all that matters.
“You can tell that the dressing room we’re buzzing, we needed a win like this to kick back our season again as we haven’t got a result since Stockport away”
“It’s so good playing in from of them (the fans), the noise, the songs, it’s great and when you can celebrate with them like that… it’s so good!”
Yeovil Town will play either Yate Town or Dover in the First Round of the FA Cup
