“Eddie Jackson converts after a series of corners to finally give Leiston the breakthrough they'd been pushing for.”

Leiston
Coventry United
Leiston tore into Coventry United from the opening whistle, cashing in on a string of early corners before finally breaking through on 28 minutes through Eddie Jackson. That goal opened the floodgates, with Noel Aitkens and Adam Mills adding further strikes inside the next 14 minutes to leave the tie effectively decided by half-time. The hosts controlled proceedings throughout, dominating possession 57-43 and doubling Coventry's shot tally, 16 to 8, while also being far more clinical, converting three of their ten shots on target. Coventry United improved after the break and got a consolation through Cameron Dunn in the 80th minute, but by then the FA Cup tie was long since settled, with Leiston cruising into the next round on the back of a ruthless opening-half performance.
