Alex Cunningham gets perfect send-off as Civil Service Strollers win cup
Alex Cunningham was given a fairytale send-off in his last game as Civil Service Strollers boss after a last-gasp overhead kick from Paolo Buzzi clinched the South Challenge Cup with a 2-1 extra-time win over BSC Glasgow.
Second-half goals from Steven Froude and Josh McArthur forced an extra half-an-hour, with Buzzi’s stunning winner coming just as a penalty shoot-out looked to be required.
“It’s a perfect send-off – I couldn’t have asked for any more,” said a beaming Cunningham. “It goes to extra-time and then what a goal. What a goal. It’s the best I’ve seen. We’ve scored a few good ones – James Hainey scored a really good one in the semi-final – but that was just outstanding.
