Northwood St Johns Reserves have got through the last 8 of the Hampshire Vase by beating AFC Station on penalties at the Isle of Wight Community Club on Saturday (28th January).
The senior Northwood have also made it to the quarter finals of the Hampshire Trophy.
Northwood led 1-0 at half time through a Charlie Shaw strike from a corner that he calmly slotted home.
The 2nd half was a more open and AFC Station equalised on the break. The Island side thought they’d won with a well-worked goal and strike from James Butt only for AFC Station to equalise with 15 minutes to go.
Full time: Northwood St Johns 2-2 AFC Station
The game then went to penalties, with 10 players each taking one, and James Bedding was the penalty hero both scoring and saving.
