ROCA RETURNS TO HAUNT ALTY

 Blue Square Bet North side Altrincham were dumped out of the FA Carlsberg Trophy by Evo-Stik League Premier Division side FC United of Manchester in a Third Qualifying Round tie on Sunday.

Former Alty player Carlos Roca (pictured) broke the deadlock with an excellent long-range shot to put FC United ahead.

Altrincham equalised when Jack Redshaw headed home.

But a Michael Norton header on 78 minutes gave United a 2-1 victory.
