Action from the Under 14s league Cup final between Amesbury Juniors and FC Chippenham (34591/23)

THE closest game of the weekend was saved until last as Amesbury Juniors beat FC Chippenham 1-0 in the Under 14s League Cup final.

Before the kick-off the sides were presented to Melksham Town club secretary Dave Phillips.

The first half saw chances at both ends but it was Amesbury who made one count to take the lead with a goal from James Henry.

A tense second half followed with once again both sides failing to make the most of their chances.

With ten minutes left to play Amesbury were awarded a penalty but a finger tip save by Luke Todd, the Chippenham goalkeeper, denied them a second goal.
