He said his charges did not create enough scoring opportunities - and BDC "certainly had a pretty strong midfield".

Oxley High "didn't play as well through the midfield as they normally could", he said.

"Going down 1-0, it was probably a very fair outcome for the game," he added.

"They had better scoring opportunities than we did.

"They had a little bit more speed out wide than what we did, and we found that a little bit challenging initially."

Desmid praised the performance of his goalkeeper Jewels Guy, as well as Oxley High for their success in the Bill Turner Trophy the past four years.

"The worst they've finished is the round of 32," he said.

Last year, Oxley High was also eliminated in the round of 32.
