Combined Counties League Cup semi-final
ASCOT UNITED were eliminated from the cup at the semi-final stage after a penalty shootout defeat against North Greenford United.
The Yellas got off to a great start when George Lock was taken down in the box and top goalscorer Brendan Matthew added to his tally by tucking the resulting penalty away.
Ascot quickly extended their lead just three minutes after the opener when Jordan Ajanlekoko latched onto Sean McCormack’s and headed past the goalkeeper.
The visitors responded to halve Ascot’s lead in the 28th minute.
Greenford set their sights on completing a remarkable comeback and fired in two goals in quick succession, levelling up in the 74th minute before edging themselves in front just four minutes later.
But Ascot wouldn’t go down without a fight and ensured the game would go to spot kicks when Louis Bouwers found his way through to score a 94th minute equaliser.
But it was North Greenford who held their nerve from the spot, scoring all four of their penalties, while Ascot missed their first two which meant the away team progressed 4-2.
