Keynsham in to quarter final draw.

AFCK trampled a brave Spartans side in the first round of the Presidents Cup at Manor Road to book a place in the final 7.

The Spartans only managed to find 9 players by the time the 10am kick off came, and held their own, until their tenth man arrived. However a full K's squad wouldn't be denied for too long, and eventually scored through a Dan Evans free kick.

Unbelievably Spartans equalised within two minutes when Harry Crane hit a monster free kick that caught the returning JP out of his net looking for a cross that never came.

The K's re-established their lead before halftime when Swanson reacted quickest to a scramble at a corner.

The second half started spectacularly when Dan Turner teed up Swanny for his second and third of the game within 5 minutes of the restart killing the game as a contest.

Lewis Turner, Chris Bessex, and Ben Purdy added some extra gravy to the feast before the end.

Danny Turner was named man of the match after collecting four assists in a game that was described as "kicking a three legged puppy to death."

The K's are now one of seven teams from Division 2 heading in to the quarter final of the Presidents cup.
