1997/98




 
 
 
 
Sun Postal are still in the Aubrey Cup, but needed an equaliser four minutes from the end of extra-time from Alan Langdale to draw 1-1 with Benington.
Sun felt they had a perfectly good goal from Chris Bellotti ruled out for offside 15 minutes from the end of normal time, and then fell a goal down in the first extra period.
Langdale levelled in the 116th minute to earn the replay.
"It was a battling performance in awful conditions," said Sun's Tom Barber.
 
 
 
 
Sun Postal saw the lead, and their hopes of reaching the Aubrey Cup Final, disappear on Saturday.
Postal went ahead after 14 minutes when Paul Haynes pulled the ball back for Alan Langdale to score with a brilliant volley.
Benington did not equalise until the 76th minute but, eight minutes later, they scored again to go through to the final.
"Their equaliser was a little bit fortunate but we had enough chances before then," admitted Sun's Tom Barber.
