    Anyinsah strike seals 1-0 win for Carlisle

    An early goal from Joe Anyinsah ended Morecambe's FA Cup hopes as Carlisle claimed a 1-0 victory at Christie Park. Anyinsah latched onto a superb ball from the experienced Graham Kavanagh after just five minutes and drilled a stinging shot that gave home goalkeeper Barry Roche no chance. It was the telling moment of a thrilling game which the Shrimps dominated for long periods, but their lack of a lethal finish proved costly. Michael Twiss missed three great chances, Dave Artell headed wide twice and Craig Stanley came within a whisker of producing a late equaliser for Sammy McIlroy's side. However, they were unable to find a leveller and it will be Carlisle who host Norwich in round two.
