Late winner sees Blues through in cup
(January 28, 2023)
Westfield II 2 - 3 Sidley United - Challenge Cup
An 89th minute winner from substitute Darrell Shaw earned Sidley United victory at local rivals Westfield and a place in the net round of the cup.
Sidley raced into an early two goal lead thanks to strikes from Gary Hempe in the 2nd minute and the returning Logan Copley on 5 minutes.
However, Westfield levelled before the break with goals from Aydin Janes and Alagin Touray and at half time the game could have gone either way.
But substitute Darrell Shaw came on in the 85th minute to replace Copley and with just a few minutes left, he popped up to score the winning goal and send Sidley through.
Sidley Team: Gray. Britt. Wade. Hempe, Bradbury, S Atkin, Ball, Witham, Haffenden, A Atkin, Copley (Shaw).
