With time running out, up stepped Ian Makin to give Wynstay passage into the next round.

Royal Standard 7

Kodak 2

ROYAL Standard go forth to fly the flag after their crushing defeat of Kodak.

Hat-trick hero Andy Windsor and teammate Trevor King sent them into a comfortable half-time lead, as Kodak failed to get their shutter open. John Mellor made it five before Kodak managed to get back into the game with two from Robert Lloyd.

That was their best period, though, and Standard soon put that behind them with further goals from Jim Tomlin and Eddie Eastwood.

Bar Du Fay 1

Garston Woodcutters 6

BAR Du Fay were quickly disposed of as the Woodcutters chopped gaping holes through their defence.

Two goals from David Sharpe with further goals from Aden Teak, Steve Halford, Peter McVey and Terry Axon did the damage.

John Yates grabbed a consolation for the Bar but too little too late for the Ormskirk boys.

Kestrels 7

Rileys 3

Andy Slater opened the scoring for Rileys after ten minutes. Two goals from Gary Myers were followed by strikes from Paul Welsh and Adam Atkinson, giving Kestrels a commanding lead. This happened before keeper Ross Boyd gifted Rileys two goals with some nightmare mistakes.

Steve Makin cashed inwith two reducing the deficit before half-time.

The second period was all Kestrels and further goals from Welsh, Burghall and McDermott completed the rout.

Bathroom Centre 1

Phoenix 2

TWO goals from Luke Hamilton, one each half, was enough to sink the Combi Bathroom Centre.

Phoenix battled throughout against their Liverpool opponents but failed to prevent an early second-half equaliser from Brian Plumber. This only added to the contest and produced some attractive football from both teams.

With Hamilton on song, though, Phoenix enter the draw for round two.

Inn Village 7

Pavilion Athletic 0
