Buckingham Charity Cup semi final second leg.



Banbury United 2 - 2 BuckinghamTown (Bines, Wardell)
Banbury win 5 -3 Aggregate

With Banbury United leading 3-1 from the first leg, it was always going to be a test for Buckingham Town to overturn that deficit and reach the final of the Buckingham Charity Cup. However, they got off to the best of starts, with just 5 minutes on the clock, James Wardell found Nick Bines in the area with Bines firing home the opener.


Banbury though equalised just five minutes later through Dior Angus to make the score 1 -1 on the night and 4-2 on aggregate.
The Banbury keeper had an outstanding evening, and made a number of saves from McCormick, Shepherd and Bines.
Then Banbury got their second of the night, Buckingham gave away a sloppy free kick, and did not react to the crossed ball and Joe Eyre gave Banbury a 2-1 lead on the night
The Second half was ALL Buckingham, they pushed Banbury back with some quality attacking football, chance after chance came and went, and then a life line was offered, when James Wardell Scored eight minutes into the second half to make it 2 - 2
(Well done to Nick Bines for not touching the ball and letting it roll into the net.)

 
Buckingham had plenty more chances and dominated possession but failed to convert any those chances so the final score on the night was 2-2, with Banbury United winning 5-3 on aggregate.
 
Buckingham Town: Zac Wade, Daley Cross (Kyle Stimpson 87), Sam Barker, Daryl Phillips, Jakub Kasprzyk, Ieuan Riley, Ben Shepherd, Graham Sands, James Wardell, Joel McCormick, Nick Bines (Sol Kazongo 78). Subs (not used): Ross Baldwin, Paul Hull, Matt Bines


Thank you to Banbury United for letting us use their Facilities for the two legs, we enjoyed our time their and for those who saw both legs of the semi final, I believe Buckingham Town players made a game of it and played some fantastic football and at times dominated the opposition
Great Sausage and Chips after the game!
Zac polished off 3 helpings..
