Powergen Junior Vase: Harwell's cup run ended in gallant fashion when they went down 7-0 away to Gloucestershire side Tewkesbury in a tight third-round tie.

In front of a large band of travelling supporters, Harwell mounted a heroic performance on a heavy pitch.

The first half saw the visitors miss a penalty chance, as well as being held up over the home try line.

Despite having a stronger defence, Tewkesbury mustered few attacks in the first half due to excellent Harwell defence.

After the break, Harwell mounted increasing pressure on their hosts, who produced the winning score midway through the half.

Towards the end, Harwell camped in their hosts' 22, but despite twice going over, they could not ground the ball.
