Exmouth put in a controlled and composed performance to eliminate Bridgwater United from the FA Cup, running out 3-1 winners in what appears to have been a relatively one-sided affair. The hosts, sitting in fourth position and carrying decent form into the fixture, showed the class and organisation expected of a side pressing for honours, with their attacking output proving too much for the visitors to contain. Bridgwater United did manage to pull one back, ensuring there was at least a moment of anxiety, but Exmouth's structure held firm and they ultimately added a third to put the tie beyond doubt. For Exmouth, this cup run now gathers momentum; for Bridgwater, the focus returns immediately to league matters after a sobering away day.
