They are level on points with fifth placed Merthyr Town with two games left.


Isthmian South Central

BINFIELD were involved in a six -goal thriller which saw them pick up an away point at Guernsey which included a double from Tyler D’Cruz.

WOKINGHAM & EMMBROOK and READING CITY shared the points when the local rivals met at Lowther Road on Saturday.

After a goalless first-half, Callum Stokes opened the scoring for the Cityzens in the 53rd minute.

But the Sumas came fighting back and levelled the game in the 72nd minute with Kian Henry’s powerful strike from the edge of the box which helped to claim a point.

BERKS COUNTY cemented their place in the play-off positions with a convincing win over FC Deportivo Galicia.

Sid Gbla, Ebenezer Opuku-Ware and Marcus Whittaker were on the scoresheet in the 3-0 victory for the Swords.

YATELEY UNITED remain just outside the play-off spots after they salvaged a point away to London Samurai Rovers with a 95th minute leveller from James Barnett.

EVERSLEY & CALIFORNIA are close to sealing their play-off place after they netted a 91st minute equaliser from Pele Hagger to take a 2-2 draw at Rising Ballers Kensington.

The Boars are in fourth place on 68 points and have six games remaining.

WOODLEY UNITED are in 16th place following their 2-0 home loss to relegation threatened London Colney.

 

Thames Valley Premier League

READING YMCA earned arguably their most impressive win of the campaign as they ended FINCHAMPSTEAD’s title hopes.

Andrej Hormola opened the scoring for YMCA before Geroge Dewhurst hit back for Finch, but Sam Tucker netted the winner in the 81st minute to see Reading take all three points.

YMCA are in sixth place on 26 points from 20 games, while Finch are in third on 38 points from 20 matches and are now six points off the lead.

WARGRAVE kept their long winning streak going with a home win over Holyport Reserves.

The 2-1 triumph means Wargrave have now won 14 games on the bounce and are just a point behind leaders Westwood Wanderers with the title race going down to the final day.
