APPLEBY under 16s have won the Westmorland FA Minor Cup for the first time.
Playing at Parkside Road, Kendal, against Keswick, Appleby went a goal down in the very first minute. Fortunately, Keswick's lead lasted only two minutes as Stephen Davies slotted home from close range. Appleby then took the lead from a corner as Josh Halls cross was headed in at the far post by Mark Ousby. Tony Johnson then made it 3-1 when he headed in a long free kick.
Before half-time Johnson again put the ball in the net, this time picking up a through ball from Robinson to round the keeper and score, making it 4-1 at half-time and with no further goals Appleby have at last got their name on the trophy.
