| ROYALISYS BOOK PLACE IN FINAL |
Windsor & Eton booked their place in the Berks & Bucks Final following a 1-0 win against Blue Square South Maidenhead United.
Adam Wallace grabbed the crucial goal late in the second half to earn their first appearance in any final for ten years.
An even first half saw both sides limited to speculative long range efforts.
Ben Porter hit an effort wide but his later chance would see a fine save from Shane Gore.
Ashley Nicholls hit a couple of efforts wide and Mustafa Tiryaki saw his shot blocked by Andrew Fagan.
The second half was much the same and almost saw the match turn in Maidenhead's favour after 76 minutes.
James Hasher crossed and Rob Bullivant seemed to come away with the ball and then Tiryaki fell to the ground.
Referee Scott was about to play on until he noticed his assistant flagging for a penalty.
Bobby Benzadi stepped up only to see his spot kick saved by Bullivant and Ashley Smith slam the rebound wide.
As the half drew to a close and extra time looming, Windsor got the break they were looking for.
Porter's cross from the right was deflected onto the crossbar by Dominica Sterling allowing Adam Wallace to nip in and slot past Gore.
Windsor will now face Marlow in the final on Monday 4th May at MK Dons.
