Anvils and Newhaven played out a very tight game with both sides having several chances.

Anvils pressure finally told just before the break with Newhaven giving away a penalty which Oli Leslie dispatched to make it one apiece at HT.

NewHaven from a corner on 49mins found an unmarked player at the far post who nodded home 1-2 Newhaven. Much of the 2nd half was end to end with chances for both sides. Intense pressure from the Anvils in the last 10 mins but Newhaven held out for the win. Good luck to Newhaven in the next round.

Forest Row started the 2nd half as they left off scoring twice on 49 & 52 mins 4-1 FR. Anvils picked up their game from then on in Oli Leslie scoring twice on 54 & 71mins 4-3 FR. At this point Forest Row were reeling with constant Anvils pressure but despite the many chances they were unable to get on terms.

16/09/2025 - Tue 16th Sep: Anvils 0 Forest Row 2 Sussex Principal RUR Charity Cup R1

Anvils started well but Forest Row always looked more dangerous going forward.

Row went one up probably against the run of play after 15mins, scoring direct from a corner 0-1. Row continued to press hard causing a pass back error in Midfield which let in Forest Row with a one on one to make it 0-2 after 24mins.

HT 0-2 FR

2nd half and lots of changes gave the Anvils more posession and chances came their way throughout the half. FR also had chances but no further goals 2nd half. Last 20 mins Anvils went down to 10 men after a 2nd yellow which appeared to snap them into action and the tempo of their game increased masively. However FR held on for a justified win. Goodluck to Forest Row in the next round.
