Jersey beat Alderney in Muratti Vase semi-final
Jersey booked their place in May’s Muratti Vase final after beating Alderney 2-0 in their semi-final at The Arsenal.
Jay Dos Santos and Kieran Lester went close early on before Dos Santos broke the deadlock with an excellent curling free-kick into the top corner after 37 minutes.
Newly-appointed Jersey boss Jack Cannon should have seen his side double their lead when Lester was denied from close range by a fine save a minute after the restart.
Jersey, who had many of their first-choice players in action for title-chasing club side Jersey Bulls, dominated much of the possession.
Jamie Mourant had a 77th-minute shot blocked for the visitors while Connor Maher went close five minutes later.
Alderney had a couple of late efforts but could not find an equaliser, and just as it looked as though they would record their closest result with the Caesareans since a 2-1 loss in 2017, they conceded a second.
Seaney McColgan finished well after some good control from Maher’s pass in stoppage time for a goal on his Jersey debut.
The defeat means Alderney will have to wait another year to try to end their 105-year winless run - their only victory came in the 1920 final when they beat Guernsey 1-0.
Jersey will go on to face Guernsey for the Muratti Vase on Saturday, 17 May.
The match will be the first Muratti game to be held at Guernsey’s new Victoria Park ground.
