Lee Madin’s solitary strike was enough to give AFC Liverpool victory over Bacup Borough in their Carlsberg FA Vase First Qualifying Round replay at the West View Stadium.

His goal came just before the half hour mark, with the Reds’ striker rounding Paul Horridge who had earlier saved a John Lawless penalty.

Bacup pressed for an equaliser in the second half but the Reds’ defence held firm and so AFC Liverpool will travel to Yorkshire on Saturday 15th September to face Northern Counties East League side Askern Villa in the Second Qualifying Round.
