Truro City disappointed after FA Cup defeat

Truro City should have got something from their FA Cup loss at National League side Sutton United, according to assistant manager Stewart Yetton.

The Tinners were unable to make the first round proper for just the second time in their history as they went down 1-0 at Gander Green Lane.

Emmanuel Osadebe's goal after 32 minutes proved the difference between the sides in south London.

"I think we should have got something out of the game," Yetton told BBC Radio Cornwall.

"We had a couple of really good chances, one in the first half from a few yards out and then Luke Jephcott has a really good chance at the end and just goes right into the one place the keeper can save it.

"I'm very disappointed because the first half we were probably off a little bit, but I think the conditions played into that.

"They were the better team first half and I felt we were the better team second half."

Truro were not helped by injuries to captain Connor Riley-Lowe and top-scorer Tyler Harvey which forced them to miss the game.

Truro midfielder Yassine En-Neyah then had to pull out after being injured in the warm-up, to add to the problems the Tinners have faced over the past week or so.

"Three or four of the lads have also been unwell over the last seven to 10 days going back to the Farnham game," added Yetton.

"So we've been managing that and trying to get through that - Max Kinsey's not here today, he's been unwell and thought he was over it, but it's come on again.

"We've got a little bit of sickness in the camp, but we've also got injuries and it might be a factor as to why we've got a couple injuries as well, you know with the illness.

"So it's been a challenge and obviously with a lot of away games back to back with the travel it has been difficult.

"But that's no excuse for today, we were still strong and overall we should have got something out of the game."
