Full-time: Cinderford Town 0 Mangotsfield United 1 - Mangotsfield United's victory over BGB Division One South & West Cinderford Town gives Paul Milsom's side a home game against Gloucester City in the second round of the Gloucestershire Senior Cup.

Mangotsfield started strongly but it was Cinderford who went close to taking the lead when striker Lewis Summer was denied by a fine save from goalkeeper Josh Clapham and then a Craig Tait effort was just off target.

Mangotsfield central defender Scott Hendy got forward but was denied by a fine save from Cinderford keeper Matt Bath.

Just before the interval it looked like the visitors would take the lead after Clapham failed to cut out a cross and Summers lobbed the keeper, but Rob Scott cleared off the line.

Skipper Alex Ball had a drive turned away by Bath just before the interval and four minutes into the second half the hosts took the lead when Mitch Tippins' cross was fired past Bath by striker Tom Collett.

Collett went close to increasing the lead before Mangotsfield's Sean Morris needed lengthy treatment for a facial injury.
