Trafford slip out of the FA Cup

TRAFFORD’S FA Cup journey ended at the 2nd hurdle as they fell 2-1 at Widnes FC this afternoon. In a game short on entertainment, on the plastic pitch at Halton Stadium, an own goal from Trafford’s Eko Solomon put the hosts 2-0 ahead in the 2nd half and left Trafford with a mountain to climb. Ally Brown pulled one back for the Yellows, but Trafford’s reawakening couldn’t stretch to an equaliser, and the team suffered a frustrating defeat.
