HM Gunners gained the advantage from an
incredable match which saw them gain a two goal advantage over defending
holders Dutch Warriors.
The Warriors went into this tie having only
lost 1 of their previous 18 matches in this competition and having won the
previous 2 league cups, but if they thought they were in for a comfortable
evening against the Division One challengers then they were given a rude
awakening.
The first half was a fairly even afair with Marty
McCarroll giving the Gunners an early lead before Ties Schenning levelled
for the visitors.
After half-time though the game opened into a
goal frenzy as both sides seemed to through caution to the wind and go for
broke. First defender Ritchie Steadman headed in a corner from Benny
Coffey for the hosts. The lead lasted barely 60 seconds when Jochem de
Ridders' cross was headed in by Gareth Debbi. Grim turned provider 10
minutes later as he squared for de Ridder to fire the visitors in
front.
The Warriors struck again a minute later, although David
Lasuen will wish he hadn't as his deflection wrong footed Spilenbeen in
the Warriors goal. With just over 20 minutes to go, Bento Milhazes
restored the Gunners lead for the third time after he was first to
meet Benny Coffey's delightful cross. 2 minutes later Coffey completed his
hat-trick of assists when he picked out McCarroll from a free-kick -
the midfielder left Spilenbeen with no chance.
With just 10 minutes
left it looked like the tie was over. Coffey's corner was headed in by
Noel Hope. But in the 84th minute the warriors were handed a lifeline by
midfielder Jordi Grim who headed in Ludvig Biljeveld's centre to make it
6-4.
