Hutton 0, Aveley 5

MILLERS made comfortable progress through the BBC Essex Senior Cup fourth round on Wednesday evening (11 November), seeing off the challenge of Essex Senior League Hutton at Billericay's New Lodge stadium.

The Isthmian Premier visitors made a bright start and pegged their hosts back from the off, creating chances for Francis Mampolo, Harry Critchley and Luke Kelly before breaking the deadlock in the 29th minute when Critchley headed home following a corner.

Surprisingly, given their dominance, Millers couldn't add another before half time.

But it took them just five minutes of the second stanza for Mampolo to extend the lead with a fine finish.

With 25 minutes to go, and with the game seemingly in the bag, Millers made a triple substitution, but it didn't change the nature of the game and it wasn't long before Shad Ngandu got the third with a well-struck shot after good work by scorer-turned-creator Mampolo.

The fourth goal came in the 88th minute when sub Said Mariche capitalised on a goalkeeping error and in the last minute another sub, Alejandro Machado, completed the nap hand.
