Subsidiary Cup quarter-final
WOKINGHAM & EMMBROOK
ensured their place in the final four of the competition as they overturned a two-goal deficit and then beat Wallingford Town in a penalty shootout.

Wallingford took an early lead in the match and extended their lead before the break to take a 2-0 advantage into half-time.

The Sumas produced an impressive comeback to maintain their place in the cup as Jack Mullan headed in Nick Bateman’s corner.

Bateman turned from creator to scorer as he snatched an equaliser for the Sumas to take the game to penalties.

The Sumas were clinical from the spot, scoring all five of their penalties courtesy of Bateman, Carter, Mullan, O’Connell and Curtis.

Young goalkeeper Aron Kanyai then made a crucial save to send the Sumas through.
