Premier League

Finchampstead clinched a dramatic late winner from the penalty spot in an entertaining clash against Woodley United Royals to give them a 3-2 win. 

Woodley took the lead in the 18th minute through Chace Jewell before Finch found a quick response just four minutes later to level the score. The hosts had a disallowed goal just before the half-time break as the teams went in locked at 1-1.

Woodley looked to be down and out as Finch went  into an early second half lead in the 52nd minute, before the Kestrels were reduced to 10 men after getting a red card. But they fought back just two minutes after the dismissal to find an equaliser in the 75th minute through Joe Swaine. 

But in stoppage time, Finch stole all three points as James Payne held his nerve from the penalty spot to seal a late victory.
