Grantham Town 3 Spalding United 0
Jordan Lemon suffered a broken wrist as Spalding United were beaten 3-0 by Grantham Town on Friday night.
A first-half Paul Walker OG and a Danny Meadows effort gave hosts Grantham a 2-0 lead at the break in the Lincs Senior Cup clash at the Meres.
But is was the injury to Lemon that further soured proceedings, with the full-back now facing a race against time to feature in the early parts of the Evo-Stik NPL First Division South season.
George Couzens rounded off the win for Grantham.
Tulips: Duggan, Walker, Jackson, Varley, Humble, Spafford, Higginson, Beeson, King, Lockie, Lemon.
