City move into the Quarter Finals of the Midland Football League Cup after a 1-0 win at Tividale.

Sean Brain's penalty in the 64th minute was the only goal of the game at a foggy Tividale.

Gabriel Bajrami came in for Dan Jezeph between the posts and Joe Hawkins started his first full game for three months. City started well but it was the home side who thought they had scored first after 12 minutes from a corner, but the Referee blew for a foul before the ball hit the net.

City continued to push forward and on 23 minutes an outstanding reflex save by the home keeper denied a Craig Jones powerful header from going in.

Just before half time Tividale had a golden opportunity to take the lead when Bustin was sent clear on the left only to send his shot wide and moments later Sean Brain became City's first player to be sent to the Sin Bin for dissent.

On 48 minutes City thought they had taken the lead. A long throw in from Luke English was headed goal bound by Joe Hawkins into the path of Connor Mooney who finished, but from an offside position.

The Tividale keeper made another outstanding save from Jordan Harrison on 54 minutes before City finally took the lead on 64 minutes. With City on the attack a shot from Sean Brain struck the hand of a defender and the Referee had no hesitation in pointing to the spot, with Brain stepping up to finish to make it 1-0.

With 10 minutes to go the Referee called his Assistants to the half way line & with the crowd thinking they were going to stop the game due to a descending fog, the Ref then withdrew due to injury. Rich Widdowson , who was filming for WCFCTV on the opposite side was called upon to complete the final 10 minutes on the line, giving an outstanding performance & not putting a foot wrong.
