Devonshire Colts 14

Pest Control 0

Aljame Zuill took out his frustration over being benched for Bermuda's recent World Cup qualifier with Cayman Island on hapless Pest Control at the Den last night.

In a match that was virtually all one way traffic from start to finish, Zuill banged in six goals to lead Colts to one of the biggest FA Cup wins in recent memory.

Mikre Place also had a night to remember as he bagged four goals, Ryan Purnell added a brace, Omar Ray contributed a lone strike and Pest Control's Patrick Pedro netted an own goal.

Colts 'keeper Kevin Bean never had it so easy between the uprights and to rub salt in the wound commercial outfit Pest Control were reduced to ten-men in the first-half when defender Henry (Hank) Young received his marching orders for committing a second bookable offence.

Last night's annihilation catapulted cup holders Colts through to the FA Cup quarter-finals for the second straight year.

Veteran striker Zuill sealed the match as early as the third-minute when he turned in Place's cross in the middle.

And from this juncture Colts never looked back as they blew the opposition clean off the pitch.

Zuill doubled Colts' lead from the penalty spot after Quincy Aberdeen was tripped up in the box.

Already trailing 3-0, Pest Control's night went from bad to worse when Young was sent heading for an early shower.

It didn't take long for Colts to cash in on their numerical advantage as Zuill completed his first hat-trick minutes later when he tapped home Aberdeen's precision cross in the middle.

Pest Control defender Pedro then endured the ignominy of scoring an own goal before Zuill netted Colts' sixth goal from the penalty spot to extend his personal tally to five.

After taking a sizeable cushion into the break, Colts picked up where they left off in the second-half with Purnell forcing the ball across the line from close range to propel his team into seventh heaven.

Yet hardly before the dust had settled Pest Control were again picking the ball out of the back of the net as Purnell beat the 'keeper at the near post with an angled shot.

Zuill made it 9-0 after 56 minutes when he completed his second treble from the penalty spot before Place took over goal scoring duties.

Having been denied on numerous occasions, Place converted in the 65th (penalty), 76th, 82nd and 89th minutes while Ray also got in on the scoring act with a powerful header that had goal written all over it.
