BEMERTON Heath Harlequins cruised into the semi-final of the Salisbury Hospital Cup after a 2-1 victory over Downton FC.

A brace from Jack Lovell was enough to secure a win for Graham Kemp's men at Western Way on Tuesday night.

"I was disappointed with the first half, the lads didn't perform anywhere near the standards that are needed. We changed a couple of things at half time and were a completely different team," said Robins boss Rae Hughes.

"Bemerton are a top side, though, and we wish them all the best in the next round."

Heath will discover who they face in the last four when the draw is made in December.

Elsewhere on Tuesday night, Salisbury FC thumped Shaftesbury in their first round tie which saw Calum Brockway make his long-awaited return from injury.

Goals from Eddie Perrett, against his old club, Justin Bennett (2), Lewis Benson and Adam Flint put the Sydenhams Wessex Division One outfit to the sword.

Their reward is a trip to Shaftesbury's league rivals Andover New Street in the quarter final.
