U18 Semi-Final Devon Cup - Ivybridge vs Colyton

In challenging, blustery conditions that made flowing football difficult, Ivybridge adapted quickest and went into half-time with a 2–0 lead. The wind continued to play a major role after the break, but Colyton came out fighting, pulling one back to make it 2– 1 and shifting the momentum.

Ivybridge responded with a third to restore their lead at 3–1, yet Colyton refused to fade. A late surge saw them score again, narrowing the gap to 3–2 and setting up a tense finish. Despite a massive final push, the equaliser just wasn’t quite there.

A huge well done to all involved. A special mention goes to the Year 13s in what was their final game for the school; thank you for your commitment, effort, and contribution throughout your time at Colyton.
