Tymon Bawn 4, Spartak 0
The fact that Spartak mustered their first shot on target on 89 minutes is evidence of the below par performance. Disrupted by numerous absentees and cry offs, Spartak fielded just three of the previous week’s starting eleven.
The level of disjointment was evident throughout, as the Sky Blues sough in vain for a blend, hampered by the fact that several players were way off form.
Tymon hit the post in a dull first half, which meandered to a close without any player putting his stamp on the match.
But an early second half score gave the home side confidence, although Spartak had probably their best chance of the day to equalise when Geoff Gamble headed Owen Marron’s cross wide from close in.
Eventually the home side got completely on top, and scored at their ease as the Sky Blues wilted in the autumn rain.
