Idle beat Wibsey 3-1 to earn semi final spot

Previous to the match, both teams agreed to switch the venue to Wibsey’s ground at Bankfoot, after Idle’s pitch at Hanson School was waterlogged.

The visitors, who sit 11th, five points above bottom-placed Leeds Independent, put their league struggles aside to take the lead over their YAL Premier Division opposition through a Arron Irving finish.

Wibsey drew level when an Ethan Lee strike slipped its way past the goalkeeper.

The underdogs again gained the advantage on the stroke of half-time after Sam Luscombe went over in the box.

Jack Strudwick clinically put away the spot kick.

Jordan Broadbent sealed the victory with a superb solo effort, dribbling through the hosts’ defence and rounding the keeper to score.

Idle will have to produce an even greater shock when they come up against Supreme Division side Toller in the last four.
