Cubbington Albion 0 Leamington Hibernian Res 2

Albion were under pressure from the off, but were not overawed and both sides looked threatening on the offensive. Hib’s broke the deadlock midway through the half with Scott Hammond racing onto a through ball to flick the ball past the advancing Cubbington keeper into the net. The second half was just as tight and a Connor Mort goal gave Hob’s breathing space. Cubbimgton were unlucky with chances going begging and a super effort coming back off the cross bar . Hib’s held on and complete a League and Cup double.
