MATCH REPORT
Coleshill won the Walsall Senior Cup back in 1983 and during that run they beat Rushall Olympic in the Quarter Final. Could history repeat itself. Probably not because Rushall are a League above Coleshill and should have enough talent to progress into the Semi Final. BUT, no one told the Colemen that! Coleshill put in a great shift and although the visitors had plenty of the ball, a solid defence refused to allow decent goal scoring chances. A very entertaining game, although with very few clear cut chances, ended 0-0 and the tie had to be decided on penalties. Ben Usher-Shipway, Daniel Gyasi, Jack Hallahan and Harry Craven all scored for Coleshill but the main hero was goalkeeper Tyrese Warmington who saved two of Rushall's spot kicks.

Coleshill will now play Stourbridge in the Semi Final.
