Sun Postal Sports 4 Bovingdon 2 1993/94 Aubrey Cup Semi Final
Bowen keeps Sun set for a coveted double
Sun Postal are still on course for the league and cup double after defeating Bovingdon 4-2 in the Aubrey Cup semi final.
Sun's magnificent form, which has not seen them drop a point in the league since January, proved too strong for Bovingdon in the end although they had to come from behind to book their final date.
The game looked to be heading for a replay back at Bovingdon before substitute Matt Bowen popped up with Sun's third 12 minutes from time.
Richard Galvin put the icing on the cake in the closing stages.
Bovingdon settled the quicker of the two sides but a Tony Franklyn mistake at the back led to Sun taking a 19th minute lead with Galvin pouncing.
Franklyn swiftly made amends however when he broke upfield and fed a delightful cross for Mark Gregory to crash home.
Five minutes into the second half and Bovingdon were ahead.
The Sun keeper could only slice a corner which was taken short for Danny Wadmore to blast home.
Sun were not to be denied, however, and Noel Gallagher drew level on 65 minutes before the two late strike tied things up.
"It was disappointing to lose after we'd been leading," admitted Bovingdon's Terry Magee, "But Sun are such a strong side, they were just too powerful for us in the end."
Sun can now look forward to a final date with Rousell Sports, who defeated BAC Stevenage 7-0 in the other semi final, on Bank Holiday Monday, May 2nd at Met. Police Bushey.
Sun Postal Reserves also remain on course to retain their title after Russell Smith and Jimmy Harrison goals gave them a 2-0 win at Elliott Star Reserves.
On Monday night Kodak were the victims, Ian Morgan and Ian Pepper among the goals in a 4-0 victory.
