Bradford Park Avenue vs Lancaster City - FA Cup

Bradford Park Avenue made home advantage count in the opening period, with Luke Parkin's 19th-minute finish proving decisive against a Lancaster City side unable to find a way back. The goal came from a rare clear-cut moment in an otherwise cagey first half, and once Bradford Park Avenue took the lead they were content to manage the game rather than push for a second. Lancaster City struggled to create the kind of chances needed to force parity, and the second half passed with barely a flicker of danger at either end. For the higher-league Bradford Park Avenue, this is a routine cup progression, while Lancaster City's exit will sting given how little separated the sides on the day.
