The Cup Quarter-Finals had produced a strong line-up with Dutch sides Jays Carconect and SV Amstelland both winning their groups and looking like contenders whilst Over Crusaders II boasted a 100% record and Stag & Co were rampant after a first game defeat. Joining them were the runners-up Olympic Phil Babb, Whiteley FC, Comets Sports Club and UK Football Finder who were all good sides and, it was fair to say, there were no weak links.

Picking a winner from the above line-up was near impossible but SV Amstelland had to be one of the favourites with 3 wins out of 3. The Dutch team would find Olympic Phil Babb standing in their way for a place in the semi-finals. The English team were to prove formidable opposition and SV Amstelland did not realise what had hit them. Try as they may they found themselves outplayed by the English side and while they did get on the scoresheet their goal was to prove a consolation. Olympic Phil Babb were on fire and won convincingly. Alex Woolston scored two to take his tally to 5 for the competition, Chris Mills scored a double and Joe Willie scored his first of the competition to complete a 5-1 win. A great win and a message sent out to the other teams.

The other Dutch team, Jays Carconect had scored goals for fun in the group stage and were the last hope now for Holland following the demise of SV Amstelland United. They continued to score goals but they also leaked goals too. Jays Carconect were finding that Whiteley FC were not allowing them to play the football they wanted to and a tough encounter which was fiercely contested all the way through finished 4-4 at the end of normal time.

With the scores level the match would move into golden goal extra time. No sooner had the game re-started when it was over. Quick as a flash Aidan Wood in a magic moment not only bagged his second hat-trick of the tournament but scored the golden goal and Whiteley FC marched through to the semi-finals. Dutch involvement in the Cup competition was now over.

We mentioned at the start of this section how strong the teams in the Cup Quarter-Finals were. As if to prove a point then we had a second game go into golden goal extra time. This time it was Over Crusaders II and UK Football Finder who could not be separated at the final whistle. As with the previous quarter-final the scores were tied at 4 goals each. Once again the golden goal extra time did not take long as you may expect in a tournament with so many goals.

The golden goal is always a tough way to go out because the end is so sudden and in this game it was UK Football Finder who had their dreams ended. Over Crusaders II the scorers of the vital 9 th goal and a place in the semi-final against Olympic Phil Babb awaited them.

Last but not least was the game between Stag & Co and Comets Sports Club. Yet again we were treated to an evenly matched game with goals a plenty. It looked odds on at one stage we were destined for another game to go into extra time. When the final whistle went in this fixture we did have a winner but only by the odd goal. There were an incredible 11 goals scored in this game and Stag & Co edged out Comets Sports Club 6-5. The Stag & Co goalscorers list looking like a Dentist supplies order form with braces for Mark Goddard, Mark Sams and Chris Connolly securing the win.

The semi-final line-up was now complete.
