Sun Sports 1 Saffron Walden 2 1968/69 Aubrey Cup
Ill luck for Cliff Langley
Sun Sports' goalkeeper Cliff Langley had two moments of bad luck in Saturday's Aubrey Cup tie...which enabled Saffron Walden to avenge a league defeat in October.
A speculative shot in the first half rebounded off Langley's chest to Drury who had the simple task of putting the visitors into the lead.
In the 40th minute Langley stumbled when coming out of his goal and the ball went over his head to an unmarked player who scored what proved to be the winner.
Sun had equalised in the 22nd minute with the best goal of the match.
A John Matthews cross was brilliantly headed into the net by Clive Griffiths.
Sheer tenacity by their forwards in the first half and undisguised defensive tactics in the second earned a place in the fourth round.
Sun spent long periods of the second half on the attack but they could find no answer to the visitors defensive tactics.
